Indiana, my butt In 2004, the 1st red state to go for Bush was Georgia. Watch Georgia!
Ohio, my butt! (I don't understand this thread, but I don't want Ohio left out.)
I agree. But the MSN keeps telling me to watch Indiana. Watch the South! And Ohio, of course, but Indiana isn’t the one.
Although my username indicates a love for Tennessee, I live in northeast Georgia near Athens. The only Obama signs are in enclaves of liberal townie/professor types in Athens. But out here in the country and all over northeast Georgia, it’s redneck heaven and proud of it—many, many McCain-Palin signs. Our family voted early several weeks ago—no line whatsoever in our small town. No chance of McCain-Palin signs being stolen from yards, either!
LOL!!! Me either sorta.
Screw Illiois! and Washington sucks!
BTW.
I am a native-born Tennessean who has lived in Georgia for most of my adult life. I proudly watched Tennessee go Republican and reject its native-born son, Al Gore.
I also have had the privilege of being in the vanguard of
Republicans who helped Georgia go Repub on almost every level—governor, state house, state senate,etc., etc. We even elected a Repub state rep, and state senator from my own formerly locked-up Democratic district. It was so bad in the beginning that poll workers would tell us that surely we wanted a Democratic ballot so that we could vote on local elections. Repubs were so intimidated that hardly anyone would run in any race.
I’ve already voted for McCain—early voted last week. I’m trusting that my fellow conservative Georgians carry the state—hopefully by a large margin. We wish that McCain were more conservative himself in some areas—but we are solidly behind him.

Oops—Sorry about the double post. I’ve mainly just been lurking lately, not posting much!
Georgia is the one i watch for... in 2004, after all the awful exit polling, i went to take a nap... i woke up, turned on the radio and heard Michael Savage give the returns from Georgia... the margin was high enough that i was confident of a continued George Bush presidency the rest of the night...
Sorry if I offended any one. Butt, the MSM, including Fox, said to watch Indiana. I tried to post this before but keep message the “auto” message about profanity. I didn’t see any in my vanity. Sorry.
got it. Thanks for clarifying!!
Georgia goes red.I did see one obama sign in a yard though.ONE!McCain/Pallin everywhere you look.
isnt there a lot of African Americans in Georgia?
I am hoping the yards without signs are all McCain supporters, but you know Dekalb County!

I am off Hamilton mill on 85.The obama folks keep to themselves up here.
We keep them inside Atlanta.
One hour and 30 minutes to vote today. Free coffee, water, chips and crackers.
He's going to Indiana to create the perception that he has a chance. It's all about bamboozling the public by using the media knowing that they will dutifully report that he has a chance of turning another red stae blue.
