More than 1,000 people spent their Saturday afternoon in line for a chance to meet former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin at a book signing at Oaktree Gun Club in Newhall.
The one-time Republican vice presidential nominee talked, mingled and took photos with hundreds of her fans for several hours while she sold and signed copies of her bestselling devotional “Sweet Freedom: A Devotional.â€
Fanfare for Palin peaked long before the event even started, as a line stretched far up a hilly driveway at the gun club.
Some people brought their election signs from the 2008 presidential campaign — which featured the Republican ticket of Palin and Arizona Sen. John McCain — while others wore shirts bearing the names of their favorite candidates in the current Republican presidential field.

In fact, shortly before 1 p.m., all of Palin’s books were sold out even though there were still more than 200 people in line.

I agree with your assessment on Sarah. However, should Trump get elected, I hope he finds a high-profile spot for her in his administration. That could set her back on the path for a spot on a GOP ticket in the future. She’s still only 51.
She’s still got it.
I used to live there, SCV. He had rodeos, the Sugus Speedway, 4th of July parades, Lassie(s) lived there, 98% white ( except for me and a few others), big families, and for lots of shooting ranges up Boquete Canyon. Hurray for my old home town!
I got to see Sarah in AZ. She wore a skirt suit made of red leather. Atta girl. After she spoke, people started leaving, because mcCain was up.
That is AWESOME you are SO lucky!!! I dont have a car so Im basically limited to here on the Westside..the furthest out that way Ive been is to Valencia once when I went to Magic Mountain. Santa Clarita/Newhall its nice over there, a hot zone for fires though especially when its very hot..Bouquet Canyon Ive heard of a few fires in that area, good people. I think that area is more Republican not sure though, so glad that so many people came out to see her I would have LOVED to go
You need to see her up close and in person. It’ll change your opinion.
So, who awarded Palin the Knight’s Cross?
Probably some native jewelry. I see stuff like that here in my little bush village.
