Look for GOP Voter Reg. in Exurb Near You
According to a story I just read on Yahoo News, Rove has a plan to register lots of New Republicans: ( Jeepers Creepers, Isn't That Swell?).

His machine is targeting Exurbs, those new developments springing up around urban or heavily populated residential areas. They have their goons attend "Home Shows" and register newly moved folks who come to the show to check out landscaping or hot tubs and end up new droids in the Minions of the Presidential Spawn.

They featured Lebanon, Ohio and talked about how special it was that Dubya himself showed up in their town. (I'd love to see what would happen to him if he showed up around here.) If you live near an exurb, get those Democrats out there signing up names. This is war, folks.

Also, if you see any posts by my Princess ( daughter), a newbie named antigone382, say hi and give a warm welcome. She has been living with a dad who listens to Rush and Hannity and believes everything they say. Suffice it to say, they are estranged. When I received this fabbo 'puter a few months back, she bookmarked DU right away. The sweet taste of freedom from bigotry! Anyway, she's a great girl so say hi! And don't tell her I said so.....

1. we have such a place called Del Webb's Anthem and at every
"festival" (usually 6 a year) the Dems and the Repubs are invited and given a free space to register voters. We get comments like "I thought I was the only Democrat in Arizona" hehehe

2. Good On
I plan on getting reg cards and working in my county, but I think the booth at the "Home Show" is ingenious. Hope some Dems get on that wagon...

Who was Del WEbb?

4. I go to the Home Depot and these other places
and don't know why, but people often seem to assume I am a Repug. So I can't wait until my next outing when one of these guys is sure to ask me if I want to register. Maybe I'll tell them "sure; I was kicked off the FL voter rolls for being a convicted felon, so if you want to help me out, great."

6. Thanks for the welcome
I'm not sure who is still logged in, so this may come in as antigone or buddy, but this is buddy writing. I love this place so much, I feel like I can breath again....
