Palin Outdraws Clinton in the OC

On Friday Bill Clinton came to Orange County to try and stir the faithful for various liberal candidates.  He drew about 1,000 people.

Saturday Sarah Palin came to Orange County to campaign for Republicans and drew 2,000 people.

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin on Saturday urged a roaring crowd of Republicans to exhaust themselves over the next two weeks to take back California and the country for the "little guy."

The former vice presidential candidate addressed more than 2,000 supporters at a Republican National Committee rally in Orange County, a conservative stronghold in a state where Republicans hope to make gains this year.

"The momentum is with us but now is not the time to let up, now is not the time to celebrate — not quite yet," Palin told a crowd wearing T-shirts reading "Proud Conservative" and buttons reading "Is it 2012 yet?"

"We can't be thinking that it's over yet and we've got it in the bag. As Yogi would've said, 'It ain't over till it's over,'" she said, referring to New York Yankees great Yogi Berra.

"Soon we'll all be dancing," Palin added.

Yes. We. Will.

By the way, Bill Clinton's event was free admission.  It cost a minimum of a $25 donation to the RNC to get into Palin's event.  I think that's what you call an "enthusiasm gap".
