Obama goes to Bush Country However
Edited on Mon Aug-09-10 04:31 PM by nmbluesky
Austin is Obama Country

And in between came an education speech at the University of Texas, where the screams of students prompted Obama to raise a voice even louder, combining for a raucous campaign feel.
Earlier in Austin, a mostly friendly crowd greeted Obama as his limousine neared the fundraiser. And inside, the president listed all the reasons why he was happy to back in the Texas city – the people, the food, the music.

He ended on a fitting point.

"I like that there are a bunch of Democrats here," he said. "I like that, too."

3. Isn't Gov Perry a Republican?
If true, then you post needs some editing.

afraid to be seen with Obama. What needs editing. I agree Gov. Perry is a Repug. He's the one that wanted to secede from the Union isn't he?

2. Yeah, Travis County is not Bush country, more Obama country.
Similarly would be Dallas County. Tarrant County (Fort Worth) could be a different story, though.
