My wife and I went to the Anchorage Anti-Palin rally, and we were shocked to see that so many people turned out in protest. It was unprecedented for Anchorage. The local right-wing talk radio wannabe ideologue had tried to whip up counter-protesters, but there were 10-1 antipalin-to-palin despite (perhaps partially due to?) his efforts. Police were there, but fortunately everyone was cordial, even though there were pockets of pro-Palin people mixed within the much more numerous anti-Palin folks. Even the presence of the radio talking head didn't stir any real trouble (he did earn some nasty glares, however). Good times were had by all. We really loved the creative signs - check the WPo link in the post for some examples.
