FORT BRAGG, N.C. Thousands of people braved a cold, drizzly Monday for a chance to meet former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, who was signing copies of her memoir at a Fort Bragg store.
Some people camped out overnight, and the line snaked around the North Post-Exchange by the time Palin arrived at 11:15 a.m. The crowd chanted Palin's name when her "Going Rogue" tour bus pulled up outside the PX.
"We love Sarah because she's a woman and she's smart," Sandra Harvath said.
"She loves this country. I voted for her last time, and I'd vote for her (next) time if she ran again," Barbara Lewis said.
"She's a real down-to-earth woman she's a classy woman when she needs to be and she hunts moose," Henrietta Forsyth said.
Tony McGhee of Wilmington said he had waited outside the PX since about 10 p.m. Sunday.
"Look at it this way: You only have a limited amount of time to get the book signed. If you're in the front of the line, you're guaranteed to get the book signed," McGhee said.

Anyone up for a PRO-PALIN photoshop?
I want this photo:
with the legend from this T-shirt:
Or alternatively, in a similar font, the words "Policy Chick".
Time to start counteracting the knee-jerk "Republicans are dumb" meme from the left.
Cheers!

If I could buy a T-shirt with that photo and your term ‘policy chick’ on it....I would wear all time! ( Move over Margaret Thatcher, I believe we have a mini-me following your footsteps! )

Zero to troops in South Korea: “You guys make a pretty good photo op.” Clowning around, or serious?

I think he was just trying to be one of the boys and kidding around --I wouldn't make an issue of it--It wasn't like Ahole Kerry telling kids to study or they would end up in Iraq

What the left fears is the fact we all kind of know. If Mrs. Palin wanted to, she could just say “Attention “peasants”, time to light up the torches and get the pitchforks out of the barn, follow me...”
That’s what they fear, Mrs. Palin is a conservative populist.
