Presidential Rallies?

[elizabethann]

Has anybody gone to any presidential rallies yet?

I am going to my first one this Sunday. Hillary & Bill Clinton will be at our state capitol and I got tickets. Tickets don't guarantee entry. But if I can at least hear what she has to say, I'll be happy. I already know what she looks like.

Though I would like to see Bill. I haven't seen him in awhile.

Just curious if anybody has gone or will be going to any.....

No I haven't. They are always too crowded for me. I'd rather see them
in a speech setting with comfortable seating. :) The only national political
figure I've ever met up close was Texas Governor Ann Richards.She was
great to meet.

I wish I would have read your response before I went to the rally. :D There were over 1,000 people there and it was very crowded. Luckily, it was a nice day and I did get to see Bill & Hillary (even though it was between peoples gigantic heads).

We went around the back of the state house and waited for them to leave. After 2 hours they finally came out, jumped in their Suburbans, waved to the crowds (at least Bill did) and sped off.

I will watch them on t.v. too (unless I get a personal invitation to someone's home to meet them or an invitation to sit on the stage or the bleachers).

Oh well...live and learn. :)
