Another good Sarah Twitterer to follow:

(relax Todd, it's a platonic sorta thing, mostly ;-)
Oddly, C-Span TV coverage is listed as Noon-2pm ET. Are they purposely going to cut out before Sarah’s speech?

( and why the hell isn’t there a C-Span HD channel yet?)
HET, HEY, HEY! IT’S SARAH DAY!!!

Thank you.
Live thread PING!!!
Probably a misprint. They are supposed to cover the whole event. FOX, MSNBC, and CNN are to cover her speech only.
BTW,
Re OReilly FOX poll
“Announced Or Unannounced, It Doesn’t Matter,Sarah Palin Is The Front Runner” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gz-_ZuBH80A&feature=share
What makes you think she doesn’t speak during that two hour block?
Let’s hope today is the day tha changes America’s future.
Sarahis needed becasue she, more than nayone else, is fearless in taking Obama and the Dims on, she isn’t corrupted by the DC bubble, and she will restore American values.
The Democrats are the enemies of freedom.
Sarah is our Esther—for such a time as this.
..she still may have a little more time before she absolutely has to announce, but I just want to see Gov. Goodhair knocked off the news for a day—so do it now...
Why should she give up her strategic advantage?
To make it "fair" for the RINOs and 'Rats?
Palin is coming, and the Tea Party is coming with her.
Agreed!!!!
Which is exactly why I want to watch on C-Span. I don't need to hear all their commentary. I just want to see and hear Sarah for myself, before, during, and after her speech.
The networks notoriously start their coverage late and cut away the moment the last word is spoken. Then they spin, spin, spin. (...after a million commercials, of course.)
bump.
I'd rather play Leslie Caron to your Louis Jourdan, if you don't mind, LOL.
