WOO HOO.. Hometown cooking!
Bill Elliott for Bush....just wish they were coming to a town near me.
Anyone have the schedule for 10/20?
I'm nowhere near any of these events. But I'd be glad to break out that schedule by state if you think a lot of people will be interested.
The 10/20 schedule is there.
Look in post #1, second set of ******.
Thanks. I got so excited my eyes crossed....plus I'm not supposed to be freeping at work.
Not your typical Hollywood bunch. These folks have their head screwed on straight.
Boogity boogity boogity.

Strange that there is no one from the Hendrick group.
I'm trying to figure out how I can goto this.
I'm about 20-25 minutes away from there where I work in Willliamsport.
I have an hour lunch.. It'll be cutting it tight getting there, and I couldn't stay long...
Actually, the Montoursville visit at 1:15 would work better.
Check that. The GREAT Terry Labonte is for Bush.
Yeah I noticed that Jeff Gordon is the only top 10 driver not to endorse Bush. Good that Jimmy Johnson has.
Opps. And Jimmy Johnson is listed. [I have a cold and am not hearing or seeing well.]
It says that Johnson endorses Dubya. Gordo is the odd man out.
Nice, but Bush already has the NASCAR vote. Wouldn't he be better advised to tour swing states?

Would one of you please ping the gang? TIA!
BUMP!!
Sure most NASCAR fans support him. This is important to make sure they actually make it to the polls.
With all the NASCAR fans who hate #24 it would help Bush if Gordon came out for Kerry.
