Battleground Pensacola.....
Even on our Hurricane Ivan Forums the internet war in the most conservative part of the state of Florida continues...

1. Good Luck in your Battle From Tallahassee!
Look on the bright side...at least there is a war on "the internets" and not just 100% lockstep.

3. You are right this is a very conservative area. You need all the luck you
can get. I recently sold some property about 30 miles south of Panama City. I could not believe the people there. They were so judgemental and hated people of color and they thought they were better than other people that didn't have as much as they had. I heard such sickening remarks come out of alot of people's mouths. (and this remarks came from people that claimed to be christians) I never plan to go back there again.
GOOD LUCK!

4. I remember Pensacola well.
There is a large section of that town that is mainly minority. It seems to me that a dedicated GOTV program there would go a long way towards turning the panhandle blue. Are you guys working on that up there?

I'll go have a look at the forum too. Thanks for the link.

5. I've got family there.

The aunt thinks Bush is an idiot. The uncle is a Yellow-Dog Democratic Conservative.

They moved there last winter. I hope they got registered to vote.

6. I mockingly refer to Pensacola Christian College as..
"Pensacola Concentration Camp."

It makes even Falwell's Liberty University sound non-Orwellian.
