[MaineDem]

John Edwards will pay a visit to Bangor on Wednesday evening - yes this coming wednesday the 8th!!). Details (the exact place and time) are still being worked on but we have been given the OK to let people know to plan to come to Bangor on Wednesday to hear the nation's next Vice President! More details will follow!

1. Capitol Steps

Is he traveling with the Capitol Steps? Crap. I have tickets for that evening in Orono, just up the river. Hope they have a day visit for Edwards! I'll spread the word on the other side of the river from Bangor. Thanks for info.

Thanks.

First Edwards then the Capitol Steps, to make a long day of it, if I can.

I'll let folks know. But daughter will know almost immediately, since she's helping at MaineDem office today.

Daughter has 4PM XC race in BGR; she will be PO'd.

Unless girls run first and she runs fast and I drive 95 fast.

Tami will have to drive separate - probably carpool with some others to swell the ranks.

My ears (wife and daughter) haven't heard any mainstream media coverage about this yet.

Gotta hammer the Bangor Deadly, etc.

5. BTW, Welcome to DU!

There was an article about this in the Sentinal and the Press Herald this morning. I haven't seen the BDN. There were no details though.

I also read that Laura Bush will be in Lewiston on Friday for a "W stands for Women" rally. BARF. W doesn't stand for this woman!

6. Tickets

I found a website mentioned on DU where one could download tickets, but lost it in my DUwandering. I you know where it is, might want to post for internet folks to obtain, if they cannot get down to Main Street, BGR.

We should follow up with a K/E supporters visit to LB visit in LA later this week! W is for ONE woman - Laura Bust.

7. WOW

Attended the rally at UMO today. About 6-8000 people. Packed it in with Stephen King and John Baldacci and then John Edwards. Wish I knew how to add the photos I took to this post.

8. Wasn't it great?!!!

I wish I could go to the Stepford Wife's visit to Lewiston tomorrow. I wrote a letter to the editor about how W doesn't stand for THIS woman instead.

9. Girly Man

W doesn't stand for either woman or young woman in this house, either.

Good deal. Pen as sword. If we don't get it in print it won
t happen or be noticed.

I'd be hard-pressed to keep up with T. Heinz Kerry, but I know enough to keep clear of LB and nicey-nicey Southern Belle woman whom ran over boyfriend. Sort of like Stepford robots gone I, Robot!

Maybe we can short-circuit these Stepford Wives and cause some black widows mating results? (male gets eaten alive)
