Memories.....been a long time since she left us. Does she ever get back here? Lurking?
I am soooo jealous of you two! I can only hope that they will come close to my part of TX! This is so exciting, and I know Connie is in her element!
No band concerts...just the usual introductions of political representatives at all levels on a perfect sound system. We clearly heard speeches and booming “Eye of the Tiger” music as Thompson and then McCain/Palin entered. It was repeated as a great ending...the ground vibrated!
For the hours before the rally speeches began, people stood and chatted with all the folks surrounding them and were just happy to be there for something they thought...HISTORIC...for many reasons. No one complained about the traffic, parking, security searches or the LONG walks from parking or bus drop off points!
Hundreds of people remained after the event to take pictures in front of the banner...Country First.
Check post 23 for some more “feelings” about the rally.
Congrats on writing for Human Events!
Thanks for the ping/post! It was good seeing you and Angelwood yesterday!
This was probably one of the smartest moves that McCain could have made. His selection is turning the tide for those who were floundering on the choices we had in this election. I now feel much better about voting.

Same here. And I know of 5 conservatives just in my family who feel exactly the same.
So many people I talk to are on her bandwagon.
23,000 - and no bands!
Intereting.
Welcome back CAL. You’ve been missed.
