I volunteered at the Capitol City brewpub's Oktoberfest Saturday, in Alexandria, Virginia, one of the biggest of its kind in the mid-atlantic, and there were Kerry supporters everywhere. The Dems had a stand there and were handing out buttons and stickers by the hundreds. It seems like half the crowd had Kerry stickers on....due to sauvy agressive campaigning. No Republican stand, not a single Bush sticker in sight--as no one was handing them out (and like the Kerry supporters in the crowd) no one had actually planned to bring campaign stuff... So since the campaign wasn't there, us Republicans missed...
