We Protested Rove But Their Own Behavior Did More Damage
By Rene Thompson - Oct 14th, 2006 at 4:55 pm EDT (copied from the DNC blog)

I am so pumped!

We discovered only 24 hours ago that Karl Rove was going to be stumping for Geoff Davis today. We were able to organize a group to protest, get letters to the editor and contact the media. We spoke not only to local media but were interviewed by international reporters.

But the true bonus to this glorious day was the fact that the folks that came to see Rove were so rude to the local merchants (parking in their loading zones, telling them to "shove it" when they were asked to move their cars) that the merchants called to have their cars towed and made it very clear that they would be voting for Lucas since Davis' people showed such disrespect.

Special kudos to Roger Auge who acted as out media person. Great job, everybody!
