Edited on Sat Nov-15-03 07:53 PM by khephra

Dean's backers came in a caravan of 43 buses, which required the campaign to get a parade permit from the city of Des Moines.

Very mild reaction compared to the rest of them. But very warm. More warm than enthusiastic, imo. They were very happy to see her, but she just didn't have the same type of reaction the other candidates had before her.

39. Kerry's signs are black and yellow. Are those his colors for

his buttons, signs, etc.? It certainly stands out from the red, white and blue but, IMHO, it looks like a police crime tape.

I thought the yellow and black ones were from "Fire Fighters for Kerry." I could have misread them though.

They endorsed Kerry a while ago. The media wouldn't feature the endorsement, though. That endorsement hurt Bush's post 9-11 image WAY too much.
