Gov. Sarah Palin completed a swing through the South in the battleground state of Virginia, rallying supporters late Saturday with a pointed attack on what she called the far-left policies of Sen. Barack Obama.
Making her fourth stop in Virginia since becoming Sen. John McCain’s running mate, Palin and the other candidates have become regular visitors as both campaigns seek to make history. The Democrats are seeking to break a 44-year GOP run on presidential elections in Virginia the Republicans want to keep that streak going.
Palin stood in the middle of the Deep Run High School football field and repeated familiar themes of the campaign, often to the chants of her ardent supporters. Supporters repeatedly interrupted her 30-minute address with chants of “Drill, baby, drill” and “Palin, Palin, Palin.”
