FAIRFAX, Va. - Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin drew a crowd of 2,000 people to a Virginia store where she was doing a book signing.

The former Alaska governor was signing books on Saturday at the BJ's Wholesale Club in Fairfax.

She joked about the winter weather, the season's first snowfall, saying that she "wanted to feel like I was at home."

Palin's parents and husband accompanied her.

President Barack Obama was the first Democrat to carry the state of Virginia since 1964.

Sarah will carry Virginia in the next Presidential race, should she choose to run.

Somehow you've extrapolated this from 2000 people showing up at BJ's Wholesale Club?

Sarah will carry Virginia in the next Presidential race, should she choose to run.

In the mean time she will help elect a majority of Republicans to the US Senate in 2010, and change the numbers greatly in the US House.
