Even in Freeperland, aka VA Beach...
I tried to find a copy of "The Price of Loyalty" at the Barnes and Noble bookstore in VA Beach (Pembroke to be more precise), and it was SOLD OUT1 In fact, eight people were waiting at the customer service desk, while several employees were calling other stores to see what they might have in stock :wow: And THEN, I had one ex Navy type walk up t me and say,"they have some left at the Chesapeake store--I'm going no to get my copy." "So you don't like * either, huh?" "Oh hell no! Voting for him was the worst decisions of my live, amn! We need to send his sorry as back to Texas asap!"
:wow:

and BTW, the ex Navy guy was wearing a Clark t-shirt! :bounce: I can't wait for the Virginia Primary!!!

11. not just Virginia
this area is perhaps THE biggest military community I can think of. The recent VA mecial cuts and other surprsies aren't lost by anyone here. I'm rally looking forward to see Edwards come here--NC's not far away, so he'll be quite popular.

10. I'm telling you
the Clark commercials have been running ALOT, and people are dissing * out in public too. I don't go near any of the bases, but still...quite encouraging indeed!
