Palin to do a rally at Dover High, Dover, NH on Wednesday..

[sniffa]

Any idea what time (haven't found out any info other than the day and where)?

Also, what would be better - a bunch of us (hopefully) crashing it, or a bunch of us protesting the line to get in so a new "Sidewalk To Nowhere" can be recorded and posted on Youtube for Keith and such to run with?

I hope it's after work hours. I have a coworker who lives in Dover.

1. It;'s in the morning

I can't fathom why she's going to Dover. It's a solidly Democratic city, a mix of working class Irish and UNH academics.

[ShortnFiery]

3. "a mix of working class Irish and UNH academics."

Don't want to "get our Irish up" ... it's not pretty? ;)

[Barack_America]

4. She's been to Philly twice.

So your guess of that campaign's strategy is as good as mine.

2. here's the link to his "events" page, it's not listed yet.

5. McQueeg will be in Wilmington, NC tomorrow. Too far for me to go but I hope

at least a handful show him some Democratic "support".

[tishaLA]

22. I'm loving that McCain has to campaign in NC

so he can try to hold onto the state.

[nc4bo]

26. hehehe - yea really! I get those thoughts every time I see a pukey commercial

come on.

On the plus side, hubby said there were quite a few Obama ads during the games. He was watching baseball and football.

I thought it was perfect timing and placement ;)

[az chela]

6. This bitch has to be stoped with her filthy hate mongering

[ShortnFiery]

10. If you heckle her she'll say, "God bless you. My son is fighting for your free speech."

Then in the next breath Palin's head spins twice around and she spews pea soup as she utters the words
"... Obama would let LIVE born babies DIE!" :puke:

[Cha]

12. Time to say her son is fighting for OIL

in Iraq and she's a hypocritical hatemonger.

[The Shadow]

7. I Can Only Imagine The Smell!!!

I live right next door to Dover and I hope the stench of those people doesn't permeate the air here. Damn! Cold shivers down my spine! Just kidding.

However, the Obama campaign needs to realize that even though I believe that we will carry the day in New Hampshire and here in Maine, I am concerned with the amount of newly planted McCain signs in the area, especially here in southern Maine. Believe it or not at least this part of NH seems to be more for Obama than perhaps southern Maine area where I am and I am growing concerned. Get the word out if you can to show as much support for Obama in these parts to counter the short memories of some folks in the area.

Added: The reason for my concern is that now that the McSlime campaign has endorsed and authorized the hatred of "That One", I fear it has gained some traction in the area with the closet racists/haters.

8. Sniffa, i believe i have found the info---

15. Boo! I have to work for f's sake

:eyes:

I'm shocked all of the unemployed will be attending her rally. They should know better.

[jefferson_dem]

9. 11:00 am according to this link.

Dover High School Principal Deborah Migneault sent an e-mail to school employees saying Palin will attend a rally at the school around 11 a.m. Wednesday.

Do your deeds and please keep us posted, sniffa.

21. How can they have a political rally at a public school?

[JohnMcCant2008]

23. This wednesday is technically a 1/2 day of school here in Dover -some teacher workshop sumthinorutha

[ruggerson]

11. Sarah Palin in New England is cognitive dissonance

it's like Mothra showing up in Dubuque.

[JohnMcCant2008]

34. Wackjob Todd was here in Fremont NH today at the "grass drags". They race their snowmobiles across

grass and water. no snow. but "they're snowmobiles?!?" you say.

yeah. i know.

[Top Cat]

13. I hope they boooooooooooooo her out of town

[JohnMcCant2008]

14. I live here in Dover - in fact close enough to the HS that I will be walking over to protest(link)

with my 2yo boy..... She will be there at 11am but I will be there around 9:30ish.....

I am making him a tshirt that says "i was Mommy and Daddys CHOICE!"....... I don't know of any organized protest effort, but I'm sure many people will turn out on their own with signs.

I'm even taking my 13yo daughter out of school for a "reality" civics lesson.........

Come on out and join the protest!

Oh - here is the article from my local paper:

[gabby garcia]

20. If she came to my children's school

I too would pull them out and then organize a protest with other likeminded parents & their kids!!!

I wonder... will she be telling the kids about how our candidate is "paling around with terrorists."?


:grr:

[JohnMcCant2008]

27. They are only giving a handful of tickets to kids- they will STUFF the audience with undecided voter

not 14 year olds who want to get out of Algebra.................

[bullwinkle428]

41. "Undecided voter" = those who've taken a blood oath to the Republican Party!

:rofl:

[McCCain4retirment]

16. what next

she'll do a pit stop rally in vermont.?

i mean where is she going with this.

NH turned Obama a month ago.

[JohnMcCant2008]

17. I'm glad she's coming - we have a few close and important senate/congress races going on - I hope

some Palinesque venom will swing our undecided local races to straight ticket dem........................

[RBInMaine]

18. NH Dems need to be out in force to counter-rally this RIGHT WING NUTJOB !

[JohnMcCant2008]

19. My "Bush Hating Iraq War vet" friend. Um, Me. Oh - 3 kids. Were an ARMY OF 5! Anyone else?????

HELP US PROTEST CRAZY SARAH!!!!!!!!

[RBInMaine]

25. CAL YOUR CLOSEST DEM PARTY OFFICE/LOCAL DEM COMMITTEE TO SEE WHAT IS BEING PLANNED.

[JohnMcCant2008]

29. I was out canvassing today with our Dover office,I spread the word. I am posting a few signs there

tomorrow.................

[Tesha]

39. Bet'cha I *NEVER* hear about this from the state party, though. (NT)

[graywarrior]

24. I may need to take a ride down to Dover.

[JohnMcCant2008]

32. The weather is perfect and all the leaves are bright orange this week. Bonus for you!

If you like leaf-peeping that is............

:wtf:

[graywarrior]

37. Obama was there a few months ago

80 lucky people showed up. It's a small area. I wonder why they're not doing Concord or Manchester or even Salem?

[JohnMcCant2008]

40. Strafford county - where Dover is - can and has made or broken elections in the past. not as many

undecideds at this stage in the larger cities in NH.

At least that is what I was told yesterday at the Obama office.........

[bobd0]

28. The collective IQ score of that high school will be halved while Palin is there

No fundie wacko left behind day in Dover, NH

[CakeGrrl]

30. Let me guess...more "We're the good guys, they're the bad guys" schtick

They must be desperate to let Simple Sarah go out on her own. The more the voters hear her, the more the reasonable ones will move back over to the Dem side of the fence.

[sniffa]

31. What I want to know is...

If a bunch of anti-Palin people show up, will she hold up Piper (who is holding Trig) to shield her from the boos/derisive chants?

[AllieB]

33. You will get to see some real-life troglodytes. Please take photos if you go.

After seeing videos of McPalin's supporters in PA and OH on youtube, I would exercise caution if I were you. :scared:

[JohnMcCant2008]

35. I'm bringing my video camera and both my children as shields. no worries.

:sarcasm:

[jwirr]

36. Continue the Philly tradition - boo her.

[MaineDem]

38. She may come to Maine after NH

Her husband was here over the weekend (the local GOP said he'd give no interviews or answer any questions) and "the base" loved him. Thankfully, the base isn't very large.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

42. SNIFFA! Another DUer is a parent of a child in that school! Please see the link to his post in GD
