Oconee County, GA Politics

OK, so we might not have as many people there as there were teabaggers on a flatbed Thursday. We might have some rain. We might have some problems finding the tennis pavilion to the rear left of the new park. But persevere and promise to try to remember to come out Sunday to see General David Poythress and Representative DuBose Porter on the long haul toward the Governor's mansion. Face it, Oconee is as red a county in Georgia, so best we start getting our candidate appearances on now since they will be getting less and less frequent as we head toward 2010. So come have some fun, rain or shine, in the back of the Oconee Veterans Park at 3500 Hog Mountain Road on State Route 53 between the high schools. Together we can reclaim Georgia. State chair Jane Kidd is expected to attend and we have invited Roy Barnes and Thurbert Baker, so we shall see.
