Baton Rouge, La.— hehe — i’ll be there.. only 40 min. away

[onyx]

Smaller cities are her thing. I know she has supporters all over our country, but she can’t go everywhere.

The nearest she’s getting to my area is Nov. 30: Baton Rouge, La.

I am already *thinking* but I’ve never been to Baton Rouge.

[onyx]

Looks like I will be heading to Des Moines!

YES! And do get a photo so we'll know for certain that you're not the swooning lady in Jim's photo with Sarah...lol. (((mishura)))

[misharu]

onyx, any idea where in Des Moines it will be? I need to start planning.

[onyx]

Zactly! Too dangerous also.

I am *thinking* about Nov. 30: Baton Rouge, La.
but I’ve never been there!!!

[misharu]

Gosh! I use the word swoon ONCE in a post and now I can never live it down! Sheesh! :-}

[onyx]

I don’t know the exact location. We have wonderful members from Iowa. I have just pinged my best Iowan friend. She’ll find out.

[misharu]

BTW, Syncro has met me, so HE knows I am not that woman.

[onyx]

((((((misharu)))))) I’ll never mention it again....lol.

[chicken head]

hey everyone- i went through new Iberia,La. going to Lafayette yesterday and saw a big billboard sign with a pic of Ronald Reagan ( with a cowboy hat on) that said “ Remember the Real hope and change”- shouda brought my camara— lol

Good for her. I wish she’d come to northern Maine.

You need to be careful. Baton Rouge used to be a safe city... but since Katrina... you really need to be careful.

LLS

[onyx]

Just cancelled *my thinking* - even Jackson would be a “trip” into who knows what, depending on the location.

[onyx]

That’s wonderful to hear!!!

[The Cajun]

LibLieSlayer knows what he/she is talking about, sections of Baton Rouge are just as unsafe as “Nawlins” (Have friends who live there, it ain't the Baton Rouge of 20 years ago or even 10).

[misharu]

onyx, thanks! I’ll be making the trip up from St. Louis. Thank the good Lord that it is happening on a Saturday!

[LiberConservative]

What?! No stop in Detroit? THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! THAT’S RACIST!

[misharu]

Hey, this would be a hoot — I get to Des Moines, I get a good place in line and I ask Sarah if I can swoon with her in the picture. heheheheh You, JimRob and Syncro would die, wouldn’t ya?!

[Melas]

She’s coming to Dallas, and we’re not exactly a small city.

IMHO here is the road to the WH for Republicans in 2012.

These are the 2008 Obama states that need to flip to Republicans in 2012 in order to get to over 270. All the while keeping the states that McCain/Plain won in 2008:

Here are the states (with electoral votes) and Election percentages Obama/McCain from 2008:

- FL (27) 51/48
- OH (20) 52/47
- NC (15) 50/49
- VA (13) 53/47
- IN (11) 50/49
- MN (10) 54/44
- IA (7) 54/45

While keeping same McCain/Palin 2008 states and Democrats can still keep:

- CA
- NY
- PA
- MI
- IL
- WA
- OR
- NV
- CO
- NM
- MD
- DE
- NJ
- ENTIRE New England, and DC
