I live in a very rural county in southeastern TN, right along the edge of the mountains. Though most folks around here may not be all that excited about Romney, he’ll win this county hands-down. Too many are more concerned about what will happen to this country if we have 4 more years of The Occupier in the WH. Almost everyone who has walked into our Republican Women’s headquarters for signs, buttons, etc. has said they are scared to death by the thought of Obama being re-elected.
We’ve also given out a lot of voter registration forms. Some to folks who have recently moved to the area and some to folks who just haven’t bothered to vote in the past but are determined to do their part to boot Obama out this year.
One old feller in bib overalls showed up last weekend and said he’d always voted demoncrat but not this time. He walked out with an armload of Romney/Ryan signs, t-shirts, and buttons and a big smile on his face.
No struggle for Romney to get the hillbilly vote in my neck o’ the woods. :-)
Thanks for posting this.
I am also in S.E. Tennessee and I agree. I don’t like Romney at all but anybody is better than what we have.
