I guess you can officially say that Alabama is “in play” and getting a lot of attention from the campaigns of all the remaining candidates. Joe Turnham and the ADP deserve kudos for pushing to move up our primary. BTW, does anybody expect Bill to draw 11,000 like Senator Obama did last weekend? I do bet he outdraws Huckelberry and Rombot combined.

Yes, Barack Obama, Rock Star, drew a lot of people. It takes my breath away.

I’ll be there! I have never gotten to see Bill in person. All the other events in the state have been pay-to-play and thanks to BushCo and their economic policies I don’t have that kind of dough. Should be fun, and I’m confident that we’ll win the numbers game (”we” being Democrats even more than Hillary supporters).

Back when I liked him, I heard him speak twice. He is the master and you will thoroughly enjoy seeing him in person. Have fun.

“Back when I liked him…”
Good to know you’re going to let a couple of incidents on the campaign trail (that may or may not have been presented in context by a controversy-loving media) change an opinion based on an eight-year presidency.

Aw, Kathy, I still like him. I just think he will be far more useful to our country as a good will ambassador, rather than as the first First Gentleman.

In Huntsville, the campaign says Bill drew a crowd of 2500 to 3000 (I would swear to 2000, minimum) and the Huntsville Times said the Huckster spoke to “about 700.”
