They cant be serious!! Palin brings The View's Hasselbeck to Florida
TAMPA -- Swaths of hot and pale pink mingled with the usual red, white and blue as hundreds of Sarah Palin supporters -- some not even old enough to vote -- donned their favorite campaign t-shirts to cheer for the Alaska governor and Republican vice-presidential candidate.

Palin is scheduled to appear at the Tampa Convention Center at about noon Sunday as part of the campaign's ''Road to Victory'' rally, before traveling to Orlando for a second rally Sunday afternoon.

Dolly Patron's 'Travelin' Thru'' and Shania Twain's ''She's Not Just a Pretty Face'' flowed through the convention center loudspeakers, as thousands of supporter waved signs and showed off t-shirts reading ''Palin Power,'' ''Got Sarah?'' and ``Read My Lipstick: McCain/Palin.''

''She represents the kind of woman that I am, not ultra feminist, but feminine,'' said Jill Bowling, of Riverview. ``I feel like I can be feminine and strong at the same time.''

Bowling, 47, brought her 20-year-old daughter Amber to the event, arriving in matching pale pink ''McCain/Palin shirts,'' ''but I've had the glasses for five years,'' she said of her purple wire rims, with the rectangular lenses made famous by Palin.

Friends Gail Emmott, 56, and Liz Fitzgerald, 51, came from Sarasota to see Palin.

''I just feel that she's working for us,'' said Emmott, wearing a pink ''Palin Power'' t-shirt. ``I really believe she's a great leader and she speaks for the common person--She has taken on the big guys in her own state, she's taken on corruption, and she's won.''

HOW IN THE HELL PALIN IS WORKING FOR THE COMMON PERSON???

I HAD NO IDEA THAT SOME PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY CAN BE SO IGNORANT.
