Sarah Palin Returns to Indiana

The cartoon might be more accurate if it showed them standing in line in the rain.

From the Courier-Journal:

Hundreds of people lined up Thursday at stores in Fort Wayne and Noblesville for a chance of meeting Sarah Palin.

Holding her 19-month-old son Trig, Palin climbed off a bus shortly before 6 p.m. at Hamilton Town Center in Noblesville, an Indianapolis suburb, to a crowd chanting her name as they waited in the rain.

"It's really good to be back here in Hoosier territory," she said.

Palin, the Republican candidate for vice president last year, is on a book-signing tour for “Going Rogue.”

About 700 people were in line at 7:30 a.m. Thursday at a Meijer store in Fort Wayne, waiting for Palin to show up at noon. Meanwhile, about 1,000 people waited at 7 a.m. at a Borders store in Noblesville. The first 1,000 people to buy copies of the book and line up were eligible for wristbands that entitled them to have Palin autograph their books.

Palin said she was excited to be back in Noblesville after last year's event at the nearby Verizon Wireless Music Center, where 24,000 people showed up during her vice presidential campaign.
