OFF TOPIC: Earlier this afternoon, W. Spoke at a rally about 3 miles from where I live, Montgomery County, PA (a suburb of Phila.) Strong rally, about 5,000 people. Bush hit on all key points. C. Powell/Tom Ridge/Santorim also there. Montgomery County, PA is bigtime Republican country! I was not allowed to get past the gates/metal detector, since I was holding a Gore sign. While holding my sign up, with pride, many four letter words thrown at me, four people tried to rip the sign from my hands. Parents cursing me out in front of thier young children. Name calling galor. Now, I didn't expect the red carpet to be rolled out for me. I expected many comments/jeers/negativity, but the absolute hatred in many of these people faces and words stunned me. I think some of them would haven't taken out their guns and shot me, if given the chance to get away with it. Great to be an American!
