I attended the big Bush rally, held yesterday in Westlake, Ohio. I've heard numbers tossed about from 18 to 25 thousand people. My take is it had to be closer to 25, maybe even more. One of the nicest observations I made was that there were many, many young voters - 30 and younger. From what the media keeps saying, all the younger people are going to vote Kerry. It sure didn't look like it from what I could see. Another observation I made (no surprise) was that there were droves of Christian people (Catholics and Evangelicals) and lots and lots of homeschooled kids and their parents. I think the fact that Bush is capturing the Homeschooler vote is very telling.
All in all, Bush looked well! He looked robust, as did Senator Dole and Tommy Franks. I was about 30 feet from the President. It was one of the most exhilarating experiences I've ever had! Everyone, remember to PRAY for George!
Some of the locals were "Ooooh, we're so special! We're sooooo impotant! We're a SWING STATE!!!! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH."
You might consider joining in the prayers triggered by the first post on this thread:

Hey now, I'm a baby boomer and have never been a liberal or flower child, never protested our military and never date a long hair......don't lump us all together
LOL
You got your head on straight, your parents did a good job!
Oops. Bob!
That's so awesome. The young people I spoke with impressed me greatly. You have given me encouragement as well. God bless!
My 27 year old son and his 26 year old wife are also voting Bush! I raised that boy right!
I heard that. Wow, it was pathetic. She claimed Bush was bad for the environment, but when asked how, all she could say was, "Um, clear air, what's it called, Koto?" Her father was so embarrassed by her stupidity! How hard is it to educate oneself as to the issues, whether you're 19 or 49? Unfortunately, the vast majority of Kerry supporters are similarly ignorant of the facts. Feeeelings, nothing more than feeeeelings .... the themesong of the left.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!! The majority of the boomers are not liberals or hippies!!! I am tired of hearing all you young kids gang up on boomers. You sound just like the dam liberals who blame President Bush for everything under the sun.
The greatest generation is much more liberal then the boomers. The boomers have given you the greatest weapon the world has ever seen to battle the liberal MSM with. We have given you the internet. The boomers can take credit for that and ending the cold war if they are to be blamed for everything else wrong.
Most of the boomers became the best parents they could be in a society that has changed more then any in history. We were taxed to death by the liberal gov.org so mom and dad had to work to make ends meet and provide for their children. Granted they could have gotten by with less but they were doing what they thought was best.
And dont forget the boomers are responsible for breaking the stranglehole the dam dems had on congress and the senate for 40+ years. We did that in 92. If it wasnt for the MSM and Ross Perot we would not have elected hillarys husband.
Not only all that but we were not the only ones voting and making and spending money in this time in history. We had a lot of help from the greatest generation. Gen X,Y,Z and gen to come would be wise to stop blaming and start changing the world with the greatest weapon ever. The internet has broken the stranglehold of the MSM. Use it wisely!!!
That's one of the reasons I started being a republican in the 90's! It's so predictable and conformist to be a young democrat. In fact, a number of people, when they found out I was one, were surprised, saying I didn't "look" like a republican. Back then I was into goth, dressed in black a lot . . . one time a man even had the ball$ to approach me and ask if I was a Satan worshipper!
a goutee is a hairy big toe that hurts
a goatee is a beard on the chin
CLASSIC!!
Interesting!
Your mom sounds like my Mom. She lives in Chicago and all her friends are dumbocrats. It drives her crazy, she is 82 and in great shape and sharp as a tack mentally. She calls me all the time to vent, says she has no one else to talk to.
