All right! I am about 10 feet from Sarah's podium in Raleigh! Can't take pictures from my Blackberry but the crowd is huge... Tens of thousands lined up outside. I managed to get VIP access at the last minute for the family and we're going to get a close-up view of our next Vice President! I'll try to post updates as the night goes on.
Any Freepers in the crowd, let me know!
“I’ll crawl to the voting booth on Tuesday-—NO MATTER WHAT!”
Fortunately, we got to early vote here in Texas. My husband was put on a respirator last night.
Bob Dole up now!
Oh man, that sucks. Prayers for him.
I noticed right below it: Democratic vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin speaks at the Exposition Center at the North Carolina State Fairgrounds.
Ugh!
Bob Dole speaking at the live link now.
Good guy..let’s hope the crowd stays awake! (kidding)

Noticed it too. Just called them. it’s changed now.
Nothing is showing up for me on this link. Are you getting anything?
Yes. it’s working for me.
Nevermind. It’s up and running now.
Anyone know where to see this on TV? WRAL or News 14 or Fox?
see #125
Sen. Bob Dole is truly a great American.
I think that News 14 will probably cut to it when Sarah is actually speaking. Not sure if the others will show it live or not.
Ok, an update. Hot as heck in here. We heard from Mike the Plumber, great speaker. Bob Dole spoke. Media bleachers are jammed; I count 45 jounalists (excuse me, paid shills) up there and lots of cameras. Staffer fussing with the podium now, adjusting teleprompter. She’s gotta be next. GO SARAH GO!
Can’t wait!!
What is the pink for Palin. I missed that somehow.
Thanks! I really wanted to see it on the tv though. Trying to cook dinner and feed baby and see my parents on tv at the same time.
Will be watching. Parents in the bleachers, under the “Victory” sign.
