Today is "Republican Day" for us so we got up at 6am to attend a Palin rally and watch her do her thing. Here's just a few photos and a little clip. We got great interviews, the Republicans were extremely nice and very passionate. ("Drill, Baby, Drill" for oil dependency and "We Will Win" for the war seem to be their top 2 chants).... we're all knackered so more will be posted after a nap!

HELLO.
I'm Ali. I'm a Mexican-American living in the UK. Soon I'll be flying from London to Cleveland, Ohio to take part in the most exciting election of my time. From November 1st through the 4th I will help drive voters to the polling stations in one of the most important "swing" states. In the last days of this crucial election - every vote will help.
We'll be taking cameras with us and filming it for a documentary. I aim to capture a slice of what is motivating working class America and would like to give them a chance to give a message to the rest of the world that is watching their decision with bated breath. In the process I hope to find some people that AREN'T voting and asking them why the hell not.
At it's simplest, it's a journey from London back to the heart of the country I grew up in, to get stuck in and to try and make a difference. Can't wait to get out there!
