I haven’t been a member of the Cornell Republicans since my freshman year, but I’m still on their email list as I tend to agree more with them than with the College Democrats. That said, one of the key reasons I quit the CRs was because they were more Republican than they were conservative. I guess you can’t really hold that against them.
Anyway, big news!
*What: Show your support for McCAIN!*
*When: TOMORROW, Thursday, April 3rd: Noon-1pm *
*Where: Ho Plaza, Cornell University*

rally will be covered by all local papers, so it is imperative that we have
a good turnout.*

committees and the McCain campaign will be in attendance so it will be a
great networking opportunity for those looking to get more involved!*

have a written copy of what you plan to say emailed to [xxxx@cornell.edu] by midnight tonight to be added to the speaker’s list. We encourage everyone to participate!*

*If you’re not big on public speaking, come and waive a sign and sport a
sticker and show your support for the next president of the United States!*Conservatively,
[Chairman of the Cornell Republicans]
But really, was “Conservatively” the best way to sign off on that announcement?

So ….. you going?

No, “Conservatively,” was not the best sign off. Now that you’ve blogged about it, Google and other search engines will pick it up and Democrats and Independents that might have voted for McCain in November will be totally turned off of voting for McCain; perceptions, guilt by association and the like.
Way to go to the Cornell Republicans!
And inquiring minds want to know: are you going, if not just to be a fly on the wall as it were?
Scott’s last blog post..Wolf Loose!
Necessary question: “Are you going?”
Now I love the idea of having the speeches approved beforehand, otherwise someone might mention one or more of many “McCain- ‘insert liberal senator name here’” bills.
Any chance you’ll go and wave a “Senator McCain, please quit!” sign around?
Sam Pierce’s last blog post..President McCain: Side Effect
I had thought about going just for kicks because there isn’t much better material to mock than a Ho Plaza rally. (If only Eliot Spitzer had held a rally on Ho… the jokes, oh the jokes). Anyway, Sam, you have officially tempted me! I don’t know if I have any sign making materials… although I guess I could always drop by the Cornell store and pick some up.
