Attended a Kerry Event
Brian October 28th, 2004
Today, I finally got to attend a Kerry campaign event in Toledo, Ohio. It was a heck of a show, just as I expected it would be. It began with all of the local Democrat candiates coming out and getting their plugs in. The crowd was fairly interested at this point to my surprise. Since I did not know any of their names or faces, I was not too impressed. Although, its very important we send some help in the form of Senate votes to D.C. with Kerry on November 2nd.
However, things quickly changed. Once U2’s “Beautiful Day” started playing the crowd went insane. Senator John Glenn and Kerry, wearing a Boston Red Sox cap, came down to the stage through the crowded bleachers and the action began. Glenn gave Kerry a heck of an introduction.
Once Kerry started talking it was easy to see why he will be the next president. He just has something that makes me think he is going to win. Further, I will admit, I had my doubts and was unsure of his chances when he first won the nomination. However, after the last few months and seeing more of Kerry, its now easy to see he can win it all.
The entire event was awesome and I am so glad I went. Kerry concluded his speech and “Johnny Be Good” started playing. He immediately jumped down off the stage and started shaking hands.
