Here's hoping he'll turn around some of those block headed Democrats in Chicago!
Bush will probably pick up about 4 or 5 more votes from Illinois in 2004, though....
This stuff drives the Secret Service nuts. As a young sergeant, I was on a detail once where the main duty was to be a piece of decorative furniture for an appearance that Nixon was going to make outside his hotel, the St. Francis in San Francisco. He came out, he gave his little speech, and then -- big surprise to the guys with the earplugs -- he jumped on a passing cable car headed for Fisherman's Wharf and hung off the side like a tourist, waving to people. You never saw so many guys in suits jump so fast in your life. |
I must be the only one to feel queasy at the thought of our President "trooping through the streets" of Chicago. May the Lord keep him safe.
Double darn, btw! I won an invitation to a wine-tasting with Don and Roma. It was last night. I couldn't go because of a dress rehearsal for our Easter production.
I would have been there today for the parade, too!!!!
I'm certainly glad all went well today!
