* John Kerry, Wednesday - Debate Party in Tempe, Music By Foo Fighters * Visibility at ASU - turning AZ blue. [1]. A special shout out to all of you that are coming to this site for the first time! Just checked our “site meter” and it seems that quite a few of you are seeing turnAZblue.com signs on TV, and as a result are swinging on over. Well, welcome! I will be posting some photographs soon, the “sign wars” on campus are tremendous.. The fight to get up to the front so the world can see how Blue Arizona is is intense … but our volunteers out passion the other guys – so we are doing just fine. Two things you should do if you want to help out: First if you want to help us put JK, JE, and turnAZblue.com signs on TV, call your local field office (yes we have 32, way more than the republicans) and say you want to help. Second come and show your support for John Kerry, John Edwards, and Arizona Democrats at the debate watching party and post-debate rally. Not only will our Governor be there, but the Foo Fighters, and OF COURSE a guy name John Kerry. Heading back out there …. wish us luck … and come back soon for some pictures.

The Kerry Voters Kerry Lot aka BUSH YOU CAN'T PARK HERE!. This is something you have to see. Michael Levine, a strong supporter of Senator Kerry, owns a parking lot adjacent to Bank One Ballpark. When he learned that President Bush would hold his post debate rally in the BOB, Michael knew he had to act. No Bush supporters will be parking in his lot on debate day, instead anyone who arrives will notice that something has changed. all photos credit www.d2pro.com Kerry has been beautifully painted on the pavement. I got pictures and an email from Michael and trust me, just painting the lot isn’t all that he is doing. From his message: I am looking for 30 blue, 30 red & 30 white vehicles to park on the lot the night of the debate. The vehicles will be parked in the open spaces around the Kerry name to complete the flag. We will have searchlights/klieg & a light tower to brighten the parking lot on the night of the debate. Let everyone in the US know that Arizona enthusiastically and firmly supports John Kerry for President and we will carry the state! So do you have a red, a white, or a blue car? If so, shoot Michael an email and get your car down there! Man, I love this stuff! TURN AZ BLUE!!! To see photos of the transformation of this lot, click here. [TurnAZBlue.com - The Blog] 6:33:39 AM
