You are so lucky to have met her.She is a great lady. I would love to meet her some time. I met Marco this year. Maybe Pam next year?
Pam is very down to earth when you speak to her one-on-one. My husband and I met her at CPAC last year, and we also attended her rally in NYC on 9-11-10 near the site of the proposed "Ground Zero Mosque". There were thousands of people there, mostly New York City-area people. And they were ANGRY that a "Victory Mosque" would be built on the site where human remains and parts of the planes that hit the WTC were found.
Lots of young-ish hippie types - I'm sure they were the very same anarchists that are currently camping out in Zuccotti Park near Wall St. in NYC - got in our faces and screamed that we were racist, intolerant, Islamo-phobes, you name it - we were called every name in the book. Most of these moonbats were 9/11 / "Bush Knew" truthers, btw.
We love Marco Rubio! I would love to meet him as well. We've seen/heard him speak at CPAC as well... there's not a dry eye in the house after one of his soaring speeches. :-)
