John Glenn spoke tonight to a group of dems Columbus, OH
Great speech.

In the 1930's with 20% + unemployment it was a democrats who helped out all of America
In the 1940's F.D.R. & Harry S. T. helped win WW II & gave us the G.I. Bill which was an investment
into America's future
In the 1960's J.F.K. pushed us to build a better world
" " L.B.J. & dems in congress pushed through the voting rights act and the civil rights act
In the 1970's Carter called for new and clean energy (Glenn didn't say this ... I missed his 50's & 70's
points ... opps)
In the 1990's Clinton gave us peace and budget surplus.

He said 2006 will be a watershed year and change is coming and there is no stopping it. He said republicans
are coming up to him telling him they are voting dem this year.

Ohio has some Kick Ass people running ..... just 2 things
turn out
turn out

BTW Ted Stricland's (running for Governor in OH) wife is great! She sang and joked .... said that
enough people had talked.
