Three weeks ago, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin was barely known outside her home state. Today, as the GOP vice presidential candidate, she's drawing crowds of thousands. What's driving that interest?

PoliticsWest interviewed supporters after today's Palin rally, which drew 5,000 people to the Jefferson County Fairgrounds. The answers ranged from Palin's advocacy for special-needs children and families; dissatisfaction with the Democratic Party's treatment of Hillary Clinton; and Palin as a newcomer not "corrupted" by Washington. Watch the videos below.
