Palin goes to bat for Chambliss on Monday
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution ^ | Monday, December 01, 2008 | JIM THARPE

Augusta — Several thousand people stood in the cold Monday morning for the chance to get inside the James Brown Arena to see Alaska Gov. — and new Republican star — Sarah Palin.

Palin was in Augusta to start a four-city campaign swing for incumbent Republican U.S. Sen. Saxby Chambliss, who is locked in a hotly contested runoff with Democrat Jim Martin. The race will be decided Tuesday, and Palin’s appearance is part of Chambliss’s effort to get conservative voters to the polls.

"More than 2,000 people RSVP’ed the Augusta event, but organizers were expecting 3,000-plus."

Seems strange that Chambliss would want someone who “cost McCain the election” to campaign for him..../sarc

I just watched her on CNN live feed. She was awesome. This lady could sell snow to an Eskimo. She basically said that tomorrow in Georgia we take the first step in rebuilding America. Right on!

First upload the photos to a website like photobucket.com

And then you post them here using the direct link that photobucket gives you. Use html code for posting photos.

And just where in Georgia are Peggy Noonan, George Will, David Frum and Kathleen Parker appearing today and how many tickets have been issued to the throngs that want to hear them speak?

They're either dippy RINO types or, in one case at least, a lunatic uber Christian Reich member who doesn't think she's socially conservative enough.

I don't put much stock in those fruitloops.

I can see every potential 2012 candidate saying to himself, "If she decides to run, it's over for me. She'll win the nomination without breaking a sweat."

Anybody have video of this yet? Missed it this morning. I was going to go to the 4pm rally in Atlanta as well, but got sidetracked due to travel constraints.

I’ll be there as well.

I’m easily recognized...I’ll be the kinda short, kinda fat, kinda cute guy with a Sony Mavica CD400. Oh, and I’ll be wearing some kinda clothes, too. LOL

Seriously, if you need to post your pics afterwards, FReepmail me and I’ll post them for you.

She has another rally in about an hour (11am eastern). I'm sure CNN live video will carry that one too. She also has a rally at 1:30 eastern as well as the 4:00pm rally you mentioned.

I haven't seen any video yet, but I'm sure CNN will carry a clip of it soon.

I’m on my way to the Savannah Civic Center to see Sarah and ol’ what’s his face that’s running for the US Senate. I’ll vote for him but I’m not happy about it.

That’s what I mean about Palin being able to sell snow to an Eskimo. She’ll soon sell you on Saxby as the second coming of Churchill. It’s amazing. The lady is a natural.
