She doesn't want to risk finding herself in handcuffs again.
Last month, police escorted Niederer from a rally after she demanded to know why her son, Army 1st Lt. Seth Dvorin, was killed in Iraq (news - web sites). Dvorin died in February while trying to disarm a bomb.
Video footage of Niederer holding a sign with the words "President Bush You Killed My Son" was splashed across television screens for days. Prosecutors later dropped trespass charges against her.
But while President Bush and his wife were scheduled to be an hour's drive away on Monday, Niederer has no plans to join any of her fellow war protesters outside the campaign rally.
"I'm not going near any of the Bushies," said Niederer, a substitute school teacher. "I'm not going to subject myself to any of it. My point was made."
