I attended tonights rally excited to hear Sarah talk and their ideas but I was greeted with no access to see her due to so many baracades put up and the way they set the warehouse up. Also the sound system needed to get an upgrade. It was horrible. At one point people were chanting "turn it up." What did everyone else think of it if you attended?

I has planned to attend, however, GCCS had scheduled Parent Teacher Conferences tonight also.

I watched (part of it) Bocephus and Palin via the live stream on Wave3.com and the sound and picture was o.k.

I was on the stage and WOW,,, it was an emotional thing when the Straight Talk Express rolled in,,, that was AWESOME! They rolled the bus in and Sarah and Todd got off,,,,she and Hank Williams jazzed the crowd...it was unbelieveable,,,, NEVER been to anything more inspiring!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't have any trouble hearing anything,, but I was close...I never heard anyone chant "turn it up"....

We got there and got in line at 1:00 and time flew by,,,I think as the day went on they did put up more baracades. Friends of mine parked at 4:30 and were in by 5:00,,, so that wasn't too bad....

Now, the traffic to get home was terrible,,, NO PLANNING of that at all!!!!! But 3 days planning,,, I can't complain. Oh,, Loved seeing Mitch Daniels also,,, he mingled with the crowd for over 2 hours and spoke for a bit too.

Amazing day,, me and my family will NEVER forget.

Well Im glad you enjoyed it, unfortunately for the people behind all the police baracades it wasnt so memorable! I really like Palin but they needed a better set up. And yes the crowd behind the baracades were chanting turn it up. Thats why so many left so early because they couldnt hear.

Oh,,,, I understand now,, I am sooo sorry to hear that you and other people didn't even make it in...that is terrible,,, because there was room for 20,000 more; they would be far away,, but atleast maybe they would have been able to hear. I am sorry... I have found the video on most news channel sites,,, I hope you can see the whole thing...

We did sit on a bus for an hour sitting still in the middle of a field NO WHERE near our car!! Finally we got off and hiked to our car about a mile and a half away with our kids,, we were Frozen solid,,,then didn't get home till around midnight,,, what a nightmare!!!
