BLOGS FOR BUSH - Also-Ran Kerry to Michigan....on Monday, November 1st!
First off, a bit of the flavor of President Bush's visit to Michigan....
President Bush's first Oakland County campaign stop came Oct. 6 in Farmington Hills.
Tom Mulcahy of Rochester Hills said he attended both appearances and was more impressed with Bush's speech on Wednesday.
"He hit upon the issues that are most important to me — security issues," the 45-year-old said.
Before Bush arrived, Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson asked the crowd gathered at the former home of the Detroit Lions: "Which candidate will carry Oakland County next Tuesday?" In response, a roar went up in the stands.
Later, after the introductory speakers had finished, but Bush had not yet arrived, the crowd kept up its buoyant mood by doing the wave and chanting "four more years."
Noel Kocher, 66, of Troy said he thought Oakland County would go for Bush this time, but not by a landslide.
"All of our friends are Democrats, and we're going to show them," said his 65-year-old wife, Janice.
That is all cool and great and all, but the kicker is that after Kerry's Donk mouthpiece said nasty things about the President...
Fowler said Kerry would campaign in Detroit on Sunday or Monday.
Heading to Michigan on the last day or two of the campaign? Things aren't all peachy in Kerry/Edwards-land, good people...a Donk doesn't go to Michigan at the end of the race if things are going his way... |
