STOP THE MUSIC, ALREADY!!!

Will someone please tell me who to contact to get the DNC to get some patriotic music for their events or some other kind of music...Clint Black, Ray Charles, Willie Nelson, etc. That music was awful that was playing in the background the entire time that C-Span was airing after the Kerry speech. It just doesn't cut it for me. I couldn't enjoy watching the Dems mingle until I turned the volume off. But I really think we need everything we can use to attract Independents and undecideds. That music would turn me away no matter what my political positions were on the issues...I am sorry but it is true. It would give me absolutely no affection for the Dems and would interfere with my ability to think clearly about the moment. I would rather see my Dems display some kind of defference for our nation. It's these little things that attract folks to the Republicans. I mean, come on, if we are trying to attract people who love their country and who feel deeply patriotic, we need to give them something to latch onto with the Dems. It is not always the message but how it's packaged.

1. I heard them playing some awful U2 shit

It sucked like hell when the Clintons blared Fleetwood Mac again and again.

Sure you've got the crowd there who can hear the big bass and the huge drumbeats, but over TV it sounds like shit.

2. My experience has been that no matter what music is played

someone will complain about it. There is no accounting for musical tastes, as it affects different people differently.

For instance, Clint Black, I think he sucks. But thats just me

3. Dixie Chicks

To me it seems the obvious answer. They already think Bush sucks and it is some of the best origional music out there, and I rarely listen to country.
