Is there protest news from Ohio appearance of * ?
I heard from the edge of the room on CNN mention of protesters. Seems like if *Bush is going to be out among the people -- something he avoids if at all possible, he will be running into protests. It would be nice if the press covered everything.

1. The rat was there
SNIP
Protesters gathered at a union hall near the campus and set up an oversized inflatable rat with a sign around its neck that said, "Where's the jobs?" About 50 people marched from the hall in 10-degree weather to protest outside the campus auditorium where Bush was to speak.

Bush's trip to Ohio is expected to be the first of many election-year visits to the state, which has 21 electoral votes and is crucial to his campaign.

Bush won the state by just 3.5 percentage points in 2000 despite a decision by the Democrats to pull their advertising from the state a month before the election.
