Another surprise for George Bush in November.

Our radio station hosted an outdoor Rocky Horror picture show.
As one of the hosts, I got to roam around the outdoor stadium filled with about 5,000 people young and old.

Last night we had 11 interns working the show all between 18 and 22 years old. Four years ago when I tried to talk politics with any intern at our station,thier eyes would usually glaze over and I gave up.
They did not believe thier was much of a difference between Gore and Bush.....but three years later things have drastically changed.

But before last nights show all of the interns -every single one of the 7 woman and five men) were sitting around talking intensely about how much they can't stand Bush and they COULD NOT WAIT TO VOTE HIM OUT!

I sat with them mostly listening as they talked about how some of thier parents just don't get it, how the hell anyone could not see a difference between Kerry and Bush, I'm not getting drafted, how so many of thier friends feel the same way about Bush and even have shirts that say "Not My President", "Anybody But Bush", ect.

I was blown away!

I saw a talking head on Crossfire literally say the MTV crowd never shows up at the polls and they never make a difference.

Bush and his band of war criminals are in for a HUGE surprise!

Mark my words with this prediction:
Any state where Kerry is even remotely close will go to Kerry because these polls are not measuring the absolute passion of people young and old who want him out.

I believe it will be a landslide. But we have to keep working hard.

Man!!!! Those kids last night got me pumped up!
