60,000 greet Sarah Palin at Florida rally -- 9.21.08 -- Road to Victory tour hits Lady Lake, FL as Vice Presidential nominee moves the masses at Sunshine State event

A quote from that article by Jonathan Martin:

"Republicans can always draw good crowds out at the sprawling Villages -- exactly a year ago I saw Fred Thompson thronged like a matinee idol there -- but the Florida GOP is saying tonight that Palin's crowd broke state attendance records. At the very least, it outpaced the 15,000 President Bush drew to the retirement community four years ago.

"To reiterate: An Alaska governor who was virtually unknown a month ago and is the number two on the presidential ticket may have doubled or tripled the crowd for a sitting president."
