Fox News's Shushannah Walshe reports:
GREEN, OHIO -- After some subdued crowds for the top of the ticket at his solo campaign events, John McCain and Sarah Palin joined back up today and were greeted by a boisterous crowd of thousands on a high school football field here.
Sarah Palin took the stage to introduce her running mate and she acknowledged country star Gretchen Wilson who had serenaded the crowd with her song, "Redneck Woman" before the ticket took the stage.
The GOP Vice-Presidential nominee seemed star struck, but told the singer they have something in common, "I see Gretchen Wilson over there and I need to get your autograph before we leave! Hello! Yes! Someone called me a redneck woman once and you know what I said back? I said, ‘Why thank you.'"
You can watch Wilson's "Redneck Woman" music video here.
