I heard that Snottypants* was in Hudson today...
And that from 4PM to 5PM, highway 94 from Saint Paul to Hudson had been blocked off. :wow:

Is that true?!

They really know how to rally the votes, don't they? They must be confident to interfere with the commonfolks' rush hour drive top think they're going to win. :puke:

1. I live in Hudson
and it was nuts in town. If this is the type of turn out the chimp is gonna get in Nov. WE have a problem. I had to work while he was speaking so I could not protest if there even was one. All I can say is we need to work even harder against this regime. Right now I feel like :puke:

2. I figured out why he went to Hudson...
Many years ago, Wisconsin lowered its drinking age before Minnesota did so we'd head over to Hudson to visit the bars... No doubt Shrub heard it was a good town to go drinkin' in if you're from out of state.

3. Yeah, he flew into Eau Claire, then drove west
Had doings in Chippewa Falls. Was supposed to stop in Menomonie but saw all the anti-shrub people lining the highway and street and decided not to.

It was a good day.

5. Didn't hear about that
I heard from my wife that one of her coworkers had to be in Eau Claire yesterday and got excited that she got to see Air Force One landing in Eau Claire. She said that's the closest she's ever been to a U. S. President.

I guess it's sort of like a really, really famous rock star (that you can't stand) but go to see him anyway because he's a celebrity.

6. Air Force One
I have seen Air Force One land in Milwaukee a few times and it is a site to see. It is the only time 747's land here and that is one BIG plane !

4. Chippewa Falls?
Home of the shoe factory where workers had to box up their machines and ship them to China? Home of the "American Worker" boot that's made in China? NICE.

Lots of coverage on Twin Cities TV about how businesses in Hudson were required to close while Asschimp was in town. They talked to the owner of a grill'n'bar and she was PISSED, wondering where she'd make up the lunchtime crowd. People are hurting, Asschimp! One day without a lunch rush hurts!

I also heard that Hudson refused to provide police presence for a campaign stop, so the town was full of cops from out of town. Nicely done, Hudson!
