Hank Williams Jr. joining Palin for Colorado trip
Rocky Mountain News ^ | October 17, 2008 | Sara Burnett

Gov. Sarah Palin will be joined in Colorado on Monday by country music singer Hank Williams Jr., who has retooled his classic "Family Tradition" into an ode to Palin and Sen. John McCain.

Williams Jr. has been performing at campaign events recently, singing the national anthem and then firing up the crowd with the new version of his song, "McCain-Palin Tradition."

The new lyrics take on the "left-wing liberal media" and Democrats, with veiled references to Sen. Barack Obama.

Palin will be in Colorado Springs at 8 a.m. Monday, followed by a noon stop in Loveland and a 6 p.m. event in Grand Junction.

Love the guy. LOL

I'm still pretty embarrassed about the way he was treated in Memphis when his daughter was injured in that car accident.

We were at the hobby store buying poster board for our sign on Monday, and there was a lady there who had just bought the entire stock of 2ftx3ft poster board ( that was on sale for 99 cents). She let us have one and I asked her what was she buying them for, thinking she was a teacher or something. She was buying them for the Palin rally ! All 200 and more.
