Well, I got to see Sarah Palin at the Toyota Arena on Friday.
Personally, my favorite part of the whole event was the musical nods to Halloween. When she entered the arena, the sound system played the opening to Michael Jackson's "Thriller." And then as people filed out when she was done, it played "The Monster Mash."
It was a nice break from the "Rocky" theme type of stuff you normally hear at rallies like that.
Regarding the speech itself -- frankly, I was surprised at how subdued Palin was. I was expecting jokes and folksy anecdotes. Instead, she gave a pretty straightforward delineation of policy differences between her campaign and Obama/Biden's.
