Dear Friends,
 
       Please join me and Americans United for Change Wednesday, August 27 3:15-4:00 pm to greet Mitt Romney, front-runner for the GOP Veep, at the Henderson Convention Center 200 S. Water Street.  (Water Street and Atlantic) This visit  is intended to detract from coverage of the Democratic Convention, so let's counter with our message that John McMansion McCain is out of touch with Nevada's working families, seniors and veterans and a looming disaster for the environment. We'll have antiwar, anti Yucca, Grand Oil Party and clean energy signs. I hope someone makes a funny "How many houses?" sign. If you have some old keyrings, load them up and bring them along to jingle. Some of those plastic keychains that are baby toys would be amusing, too.
    Sorry for the short notice, as I waited to gauge interest in this rally. We will have plenty of time to get home to watch our convention afterward. I'm listening to a clip of Ted Kennedy as I write this, so let's dedicate this one to him.
      As always, I will bring lots of signs, flags, a cooler with water and maybe some tunes.
      Anyone who speaks Spanish and plans on attending, please let me know.
What: Rally to greet Mitt Romney and counter GOP message
When: Wednesday, August 27, 3:15-4:00 pm
Where: 200 S. Water Street, Henderson Convention Center.
Bring:  Yourself and a friend, a vivid sign, a hat and sunblock
