Campaign Queens

Sarah Palin and her running mate came to Virginia Beach last week.  Being the politically minded gals that we are not, we decided to go check out the action.
The arena was a madhouse! We got there just before the doors were set to open and still had to wait in the mile long line.  When we finally got inside, we realized that our chances of actually seeing the candidates were slim to none.  We ended up BEHIND the camera crew!   Even knowing all of this, we still waited about two and a half hours for them to show up.

There's McCain.  Notice the view is BETWEEN one of the camera guys legs.

I thought this was the coolest sign.

Holly shows her support!
Did you notice that there are no pictures of Sarah Palin here?  Thats because our line of sight to the podium between the camera guys legs went completely away when she got up to speak.  The campaign signs went up and never came down while she spoke, thus blocking our view.  It's ok though, it was just fun to be there.  Oh and don't believe the media when they low ball the number of people in attendance.  There were at least 22,000 people there.
