In front of a record crowd at Salem Stadium yesterday 16,000 people cheered and greeted Gov. Sarah Palin to the Roanoke Valley. It was cold and windy however, the energy that exuded from the people kept it bareable. Everybody there wanted nothing more than to see the first female Vice President of the United States. She came out and energized the crowd holding signs such as I'm Joe, Drill Baby Drill, U GO GIRL, Joes 4 McCain, A Woman's Place is in the House...... The White House!, DEMS for McCain, United Steel Workers for McCain, Hispanics For McCain and so on and so on. She gave a good speech and hit home the message and why Va. needs to vote McCain-Palin. Of course she talked about 'Spreading the Wealth Around', tax increases, National Security, we cannot have the Dems control everything click here to read and hear the speech.
In all we had a great time took some great pictures, shook hands with Jerry Kilgore and Congressman Virgil Goode, saw some friends and in all left electrified for our country. I counted a total of 3 protesters but they were quickly debated and made to realize their brains are not firing. The Lynchburg News and Advance reported it was 12,000 people they miss counted by 4,000 gee what a surprise. Last week Joe Biden visited a High School 2 miles south of Salem and could only fill a gymnasium, Barack Obama could not fill the 8,000 seat Roanoke Civic Center 5 miles away, they even covered sections of the arena so the media could not film the empty seats. The Palin Rally was supposed to be at the Salem Civic center which seats 6,800 but after the second day of online registration they changed venues to the 15,ooo capacity Salem Football Stadium and packed it with 16,000. Clearly we know if it was not for Northern Va. the Roanoke Valley could carry Va. Enjoy the pictures.
