Thanks for the report. Good news.But wait, there's more!
Since we were not able to meet Ann IN PERSON after the event -- and God knows, we TRIED! -- we went for the next best thing, and starting working the crowd for recruits to the LMU College Republican club, which we were told has been somewhat moribund since the last election.
There were a handful of LMU undergrads who were hanging out after Ann's speech with us -- until we found out that "she had left the building" (a la Elvis) -- and they expressed an interest for REVIVING the CRs on LMU!Ann truly DID "energize the crowd" last night!
We exchanged contact information with some of them, and intend to support any future events that they chose to sponsor......just like we did with the CRs from Santa Monica College HERE:
"Welcome Back, W!" HUNDREDS rally near Santa Monica airport to support President Bush – new PHOTOS!

On a Thursday afternoon.
In Santa Monica.
