McCain and Palin Get Their Gear on in Pa. (With Teutul's)
Washington Post ^ | 09/22/08 | Robert Barnes

MEDIA, Pa. -- With Sarah Palin in a red leather jacket and American Chopper dude Paul Teutul on stage, the McCain campaign took on a born-to-be-wild vibe a rally at the courthouse square here.

Palin introduced Teutul -- founder of the Orange County Choppers and the host, with his sons, of American Chopper on the TLC channel -- as he rode onstage on a white chopper, a type of motorcycle, dedicated to POW-MIAs.

Teutul noted McCain's years in a Vietnamese prison.

LOL,

Get the feeling this metrosexual "reporter" isn't real familiar with those "flyover country" folks and their "clung to" motorcycles?

The full quote was “Sarah and I are going to get on that chopper and ride to Warshington and raise Hell!”

It was a great line.

Crowd numbers??

Oh, maybe a hundred or so...

OK, maybe a few hundred...

Oh, and they were all angry, gun-totin', bible-thumpin' zenophobes...

OK, OK! There were several hundred...

Allright, dammit! There were thousands there!, but you won't hear about that in the NY Times...

:-)

I’ve been tangling with several Obama-ites who’ve been tag-teaming me in the forum of the local news rag in South Central Pennsylvania. They’re like hyenas, quite vicious but completely stupid.

Having a chopper each and riding out on same (with Palin pulling a wheelie) would have been great.

I have a lump in my throat after seeing the pic of the young girls so obviously delighted to meet Gov. Palin.

What a great role model she is.

Love to see the faces of the young women meeting Palin. Finally, a real political role model for Veep they can emulate. Gives me real hope for this country's future.

No crowd numbers at all in this Reuters story. I wonder why that is?

"Get the feeling this metrosexual "reporter" isn't real familiar"

You should look up the SNL skit of the NYT assignment meeting. The AK guy shows a shotgun picture and all the NYT reporters try to guess what it is. Similarly funny.
