Hi,

I live next to Pa, a swing state that will see alot of both candidates. I would like to go to a Bush rally and do some old fashioned heckling. How does one go about producing the deer in the head lites look in Bush's eyes?

1) Where do I find his travel plans?
2) Are there any details listing the Republican gauntlet I will have to run?
3) What are the risks of my actions a) getting bounced on my butt or a trip to the slammer?

Thanks,
Weedwacker

3. That stinks!

I was in line with 2 other DUers (RationalRose and Jonnyblitz) and one of the security guys came by and told us that the event was full, so we left (after waiting in line for an hour and a half). Oh well, still got to go to the DU gathering and John Breaux's party; shook hands with Leahy (wanted to ask if he had any catch phrases for me :evilgrin:
