SARAH PALIN RALLY AFTER ACTION REPORT:

First, I have to quit being mad at the Missouri Republican Party organizers.

Let me put it this way: My ticket numbers for the event were #21 and #22.

Yet, when I got there, the “organizers” told me they hadn’t put out enough VIP chairs and my seats were gone. I took one of my young female employees so she could shake hands with Sarah, get a photo, etc. I was not happy. That won’t be the end of it, either.

We ended up standing way in the back. Gosh, $5K donations just don’t go as far as they used to...

Typical Republican Party organizing...dysfunctional.

OTHER THAN THAT...

The rally was held at the flagship Bass Pro Shops store...huge parking lot. The place was PACKED. I’m guessing more than 10,000, but the news reports have said everything from 6,000 to 20,000.

Pierce Arrow, a singing quarter out of Branson warmed up the crowd. Cong. Kenny Hulshof, who’s the nominee for governor spoke, as well as Cong. Roy Blunt.

Naomi Judd introduced Sarah (she looks Gothic these days). She wasn’t impressive, but her heart is in the right place.

The place went crazy when Sarah came out. She talked about feeling right at home in the Bass Pro Shops store and wanted to keep shopping.

She gave the standard stump speech, which was well received. She emphasized values, growing small businesses, a freeze on Federal spending and lowering taxes.

Speech was about 25 minutes, then she walked right down to where MY SEATS are and shook hands a posed with the jerks sitting in MY SEATS.

I’ll post photos ASAP.

I did take some photos of some “protesters” (DU types) just for my FR peeps.

I had one of my employees drop us off and pick us up; while we were waiting for our ride, I stood “right in the middle” of the protesters (between two of them) and handed out some of the “Women for Palin” buttons I bought at the rally.

Since I have about 100 pounds on the biggest guy there, they didn’t say a word! What a bunch of liberal weenie wimps.

Code Pink was there, but I guess they got cold and left early. More wimps.

Overall, a great event. It’s nice to live in this part of the country. Biden had about 2,000 at his rally here and that’s being generous.

Sarah rocked the Ozarks at Bass Pro!
