Pres. Bush visits Reno... Kerry Dissed!

I just returned frm President Bush' visit to Reno, Nevada. Working as a volunteer for the campaign, I came away with a few thoughts to share:

The crowd was incredible, with the crowd lining up well before the event staff was scheduled to appear. People wrapped around the convention center, down a main thoroughfare and back again. They say 9000 tickets were distributed, and my bet is all were used.

It was great to see a diverse crowd, with an amazing number of young people, especially high school and college age adults.

The best line of the day came from Secretary of State Dean Heller: "John Kerry changes positions more often than a Nevada prostitute." The crowd roared!

Sen. John McCain introduced the President. I told my daughter that McCain must see the handwriting on the wall and wants a key role in the next administration. McCain knows that paybacks are hell in the second term of a President, so he's back leading the bandwagon.

The Prez got a long and loud ovation and Nevada welcome. His speech was well written, but better yet, well delivered. He never looked better.

None of us inside the venue knew of the death of the hostage. Probably explained why the Prez was late.

Loudest cheers were for his comments about the war on terror, the armed forces, and cutting taxes.

Another explosion of emotion at the end of the speech, and the crowd filed away motivated, satisfied and anxious to put Nevada in GWB's column come November. Bank on it!

Nice to be considered a "swing state" to get the Prez out here. The only thing "swinging" about Northern Nevada is the door leading out for Kerry when he follows with a visit within the next few months.

A great day!

Forgot to mention that while the State Treasurer was speaking pre-President arrival, a loud round of applause erupted in the back of the crowd and continued in a chain-like effect throughout the center... all to show respect for six uniformed servicemen who entered in silence and worked their way through the crowd.

A very touching, sincere show of respect to the well deserved!

Not quite Give 'Em Helms (or, for that matter, Give 'Em Dubya ), but it's catchy enough...!

Rats, foiled again. I should have claimed rights to that line.

You're not Joe Biden, are you?
