UPDATE: It's On. Tea Party Confirms Palin is a Go for Indianola Rally
After much speculation, Restoring America event organizers get a 'yes' from Palin's camp.

First, she was a 'yes,' then a 'no' and now a 'yes.'
Sarah Palin's plan to appear at a Tea Party of America rally, which was temporarily sidetracked this morning, is back on.
The Restoring America event is scheduled for Saturday, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the National Balloon Classic Field in Indianola. The event had originally been planned at Hawkeye Antique Acres in Waukee. It was moved to accommodate a larger-than-expected crowd.

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin was slated to be the keynote speaker at the event when word came down this morning that her appearance was 'on hold.'
“I talked to her (Palin) people and they told me it’s on hold at the moment,” Tea Party of America founder Ken Crow said earlier today. “All of this happened because of bad information and panicking."

The Wall Street Journal reported that "Palin’s appearance was 'no longer confirmed' and cited 'continual lying' from event organizers at Tea Party of America, including a recent mix-up over whether former U.S. Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell of Delaware would also speak.
Harlan Colt, director of the Tea Party of America, said the group is looking forward to Saturday.
"Sarah is coming," he said. "We look forward to the event. Everyone should come along, bring their lawn chairs and some sunscreen. It's going to be fun event."
