President Bush's HISTORIC visit to Mansfield, OHIO

Today President Bush made history in Mansfield, Ohio.

He was the first sitting President to visit this city since Woodrow Wilson made a train stop in 1916, and it made us PROUD! It was the second of three stops on a bus tour through Ohio, part of what he called "quality time" in our state!

The town hall forum entitled "Focus on Ownership" was held at the historic Renaissance Theatre, and the central topic was the economy. Four local citizens told stories of how the Bush economy and tax policy has helped their lives and our local economy.

There was only room for 1,400 people in the theatre, and thousands were turned away, but those who were there are pumped up and ready to deliver Richland County and the state of Ohio to President Bush in November!

Thank you for sharing your day with us!!!

That means you were thinking and behaving rationally!...;)

Same problem with mine, you push the button and it takes 5 seconds to focus itself and take. I always have to compensate/guess for the 5 seconds. Great job nonetheless, and thanks for sharing them with us!! :)

Go Bush-Cheney '04!!

Wonderful report and great pictures!

Fabulous pictures, and I'm glad to see him look "up". He looked strained in Racine last week. It must be awfully hard for him to be on the go so much.

I have the same problem with my digital -- the smile is gone by the time the camera focuses and clicks. My friend last week good great shots by putting the camera on sports mode and clicking away -- took 20 bad shots and got 2 great ones.

That was definitely a close encounter. I am down here in Richland Parish (you know, we have to be different and have parishes, not counties, in LA) and I am so envious of that "quality time" y'all are getting. Methinks it is most certainly "quantity time" and I am so envious of all those Ohio swing state campaign visits.

I know you are working hard on those stupid undecideds, so I'm excited for you. Congrats on a great day with President Bush. Where was the rest of the family? Did you only get 3 tickets?

Way to go, it is great to see the enthusiasm that greets the President as he travels through the Battleground. Glad you could be there for him.

[ohioWfan]

Bush is going to take Ohio BIG TIME!

[ohioWfan]

You're very welcome! I think he'll probably get back to NM, don't you think?

[ohioWfan]

I teach in Ashland. VERY Republican town!

[ohioWfan]

The crowd was ROARING, yelling "WE LOVE YOU GEORGE" and "AMEN!" a lot!

[ohioWfan]

You're welcome! I'll add any more I get from our other camera later.

I think Mr. Ohio got Karl Rove too.
