A Close Tri-Cities Encounter w/Sarah

As we were standing in line waiting, someone told us Sarah was greeting people from the back of the line. I, at first, dismissed it as a crowd rumor, but then a guy showed me a picture of Sarah on his iPhone! My daughter was texting all her friends in excitement. A security guy came and made everyone stand on the curb as Sarah made her way down the line of people. She shook everyone’s hand and asked his or her name, and was very approving of Raechel’s Vandals sweatshirt. (Palin is a 1987 U of I Grad) She had to pack up the baby and go into Hasting’s very soon after. The Tri-City Herald interviewed me and did a story, which can be found here . We waited another 4 hours to get our book signed, but they closed the line about 30 people ahead of me/ Katie McGuire , Red County. More here .

Question: Montanans interviewed by the Billings Gazette said they would stand in line in temperatures predicted to be 6-below-zero Tuesday in Billings for a chance to meet Sarah Palin. Would you be willing do that to meet any current politician?
