My Conversation with Sarah Palin



After waiting over 13 hours in line, I got to meet Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin at the Fairfax BJ's bulk food store.

After shaking hands with the Governor's husband Todd, I shook hands and spoke briefly with Gov. Palin.

We had about a ten second conversation--- here's a transcript...

Me: Nice to see you Governor.
Palin: Thanks, what's your name?
Me: Curtis Kalin, it's like your name, but with a K.
Palin: Good! You going to school?
Me: Yes, George Mason University.
Palin: What are you studying?
Me: Government.
Palin: Great!!! We need more the good guys guys out there. Thanks for coming out.
Me: Thank you, keep fighting.
Palin: I will.

At times the snow and bitter cold would make me think, "Why am I doing this?" But after that moment, I knew my time was worth it. Gotta say, it was pretty cool.

-My Twitter feed had many tweets from the signing throughout the night and morning.

I'll try to find videos and news reports of the event. I'll link them below when I find them...

- Book signing in the Washington Post... (video in article)
