Which gave me an awesome seat 20 feet away from my president! Some other cool things first...I made friends with this secret service lady, and she was telling me about her job, and all the things that go allong with it (very neat). Now the rallly was held at an arena here that is barely used since a newer opened 4 blocks away. They completely filled the lowerbowl and the floor with supporters.

As far as people who were given tickets to the event...Well, the tickets had to be picked up at the Bush Cheney offices around South Florida. I know some of my Republican friends recieved phone calls to see if they wanted to attend. By the day of the event, the tickets were gone. There were a fairly medium sized group of Kerry protesters outside, sometimes having it out with pro-Bush supporters.

As far as the speech goes. I gotta say that he honestly impressed me. Even I had some doubts as to how he would sound live and in person, but I think he comes out worse of television. We heard that Democrat Senator guy (from Georgia) introduce Laura Bish and then Laura introduced the President. He talked about alot of things....probably close to 45 minutes. He discussed the war and how he would still do the same thing today if he had to. He discussed the economy, corporate scandal, and of course Cuba. Since the Cuban-american population really could give Bush the state of Florida, he really hammered down the topic.

Funny things: Bush speaking Spanish...enough said He said alot of things in Spanish....he mentioned Jeb his "hermanito" (brother) wasn't here. He then said about Kerry's voting habitis "voto si, despues voto no" (I vote yes, then I vote no)

Overall a good time, and I gotta say I'm happy I'll be voting for him. (insert every other Ledgies replies here, LOL)
