“But not everyone went away happy. Several dozen people who had wristbands were turned away. ‘They didn’t have this organized well enough,’ said Sue Hendricks. ‘It was just not done right.’ ‘I’m very disappointed. I think it was very rude. She could have at least apologized, and she didn’t even do that,’ said Teresa Hedrick. Many of the unhappy people stood in the rain all day, bought the book from Borders and clutched their wristbands for their opportunity to meet Palin. ‘We bought two books from Borders to have our receipt and our wristband to get it signed tonight,’ said one woman. ‘My books are going back to Borders tomorrow.’ ‘We gave up our entire workday, stayed in the cold. My kids were crying,’ said one man. ‘They went home with my wife. She was out here in the freezing cold all day. I feel like I don’t want to support Sarah.’” —Palin Greets Hundreds, But Not Everyone Leaves Happy
