Local Kerry news
Just saw this and my esteemed Senator on local news as I was typing in another thread. Not to make anyone jealous or anything. LOL! (Sorry WEL. I just turned around to look at my TV and there he was. Wow! Ah, happens all the time.)

Senator Kerry will be in Hopkinton, MA on Monday for the start of the Boston Marathon. He will signal the start of the race for the Wheelchair athletes. This is an honor for the Senator, who is finally getting some recognition from the good people of Massachusetts. (We luvs him now.)

Good for him. A richly deserved honor. (And he's piling up those frequent flier miles again. Washington DC today, Austin TX tomorrow, Boston Sunday, Washington DC on Tuesday. The Iron Man competition has nothing on Kerry.)

5. Okay, we need T-Shirts
So he will recognize us and know that we are not just any old faces in the crowd. I know he's coming to Portland soon, I just know it. (he better)

Any ideas?

I've always been partial to the red hat society, maybe we can do something outrageous like that????

3. LOL! a post crossed in time
Edited on Fri Apr-15-05 10:37 PM by TayTay
I saw him last week. He is on a roll. I believe he is developing a five point plan that he will be emphasizing through the 2006 election. (At least.)

Health Care
Environment
America's Role in the World
Shoring up America. (Education, infrastructure, ect.)
Election reform

I would be curious to see if you hear this as well. It is a good idea to develop a consistent set of points and then hammer away at them at every stop.
