Kerry to visit Michigan for a rally on Saturday. Any info?

[Lefty48197]

I heard "probably" Detroit. Someone else said something about an event in Ann Arbor (Kerry related?). Does anybody know anything about this visit? Location/time?

1. Haven't heard anything but if I do I will post it here!

2. Hi Lefty!

I heard this, too, on WDET this morning, but no details.

3. It is definitely Detroit, with no set venue. I'm guessing they are going

to go bigger than yesterday. :hi: Edwards in Flint today.

5. Could it be at Wayne State?

Or Cobo Hall? Based on the turnout at Macomb yesterday, they'll need a big venue.

[ScreamingMeemie]

6. I thought maybe Cobo...or the JLA. Seeing as it isn't being used

right now. :hi:

7. There's absolutely nothing on his website

about it. Which is strange. You'd think they'd have to book a venue well in advance.

4. If John Kerry loved me

He wouldn't make me chose between him and my neglected husband's birthday party ... :(

[Lefty48197]

8. Oh come on!

Your husband will understand.

[noamnety]

9. um ... no he won't.

Our lunch with relatives is at 12:45.

If John comes midday, I'll know he's testing my loyalty. :)

10. Anyone here anything more about this visit?

Just wondering...:shrug:

Edited for updated information.

12. Wow cool update! Tai Streets and Robert Porcher? Outstanding!

Although Kirsten Dunst would be the highlight in MY book.

13. Today I heard that Kerry might put off his MI visit until Sun or Mon

That's really not surprising. Their schedules change by the day and even by the hour at this point in the campaign. The polls dictate their schedules. I really won't be disappointed if John doesn't come back before the election. I'll take it as a good sign!

14. Hart Plaza- Monday

Gates open at 3:30

15. I just got that email too.

Hart Plaza, Monday, rain or shine.

Now, why are they coming here? The last Epic poll--which is usally pretty reliable--has him up. Or, is this something I am not seeing.

OK, back to the tasks at hand in Aldoville.

Speaking of which:

My state rep is being sued by his opponent (Largent) for some ad he ran. It's a crock of shit. Betsy wants the 37th back, and the Gooper motherfuckers will do anything to get it back.

Largent made an ass of himself at the last debate, and I hope the Farmington faithful who were watching saw it.

It's sad to know that the "party of Lincoln" that started here in Michigan has taken to wearing brown shirts. Fuck them!

Sorry for the rant, but I am pissed.

16. What gates?

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. That's what I was thinking. Perhaps they are going to put up some

barriers? :shrug:

18. I get the feeling the crowd will spill out onto Jefferson Ave.

19. Ladies and Gentlemen....

Stevie Wonder!
Just got word that lil'Steve will be there on Monday. My 69 year old mother just volunteered to help set up! I'm gonna miss it due to work and canvassing.
I'm past the speech and photo-op, handshake thing. Just REAL nervous about the election and walking for MoveOn....
