...In this thread, which will serve as the "after action" report for our recent Leno FReep, I intend to explore this strange and very unexpected (to me) twist on the controversial "big tent" philosophy of the new Republican party. And that strange new twist is, many Adam Lambert fans support Sarah Palin!As I posted on onyx's Palin/Leno LIVE thread, also from adamlamberttv.blogspot.com:
...The majority of the audience were there for Adam.We had a few Palin people behind us but they were clearly in the minority. The audience was very polite even though many of us are not Palin supporters.

Why can't Adam and Palin fans be in the same person? I am.

I'm a Palin AND Adam supporter. There's a lot of us. A LOT of Palin supporters are Independents.....fiscally conservative and socially liberal.

I love Adam, and I don't dislike Palin.
I think there is room in the world for all of them. I'm glad there was such a diverse group on his show and that Leno showed respect to ALL of them.

Another Adam and Palin supporter here, who normally doesn't feel the need to respond to small-minded stereotyping of "Middle-America".
I went to Adam lambert’s Fantasy Springs Resort ( in Indio CA)last week. The place was packed with people of all ages. I had lots of chances to talk to people. Many of them were men and women in their 40-60’s who talked openly about being conservative; many support Palin and hoped she would run.
But they were there because they love Adam. He reminds them of Elvis or Robert Plante from Led Zeppelin or Freddie Mercury from Queen etc.etc.
Adam is very flamboyant...but this boy can sing.
My aunt loves Lambert and did not think he was homosexual when I told her
she is also big Sarah supporter.
And great After Action Report.
Nice to see you sorting out all of the flotsam and jetsam in the media and on the www.
