Can anyone tell me anything about the Goo Goo Dolls that would be exciting?
I know the name and know they're gonna be at the JK rally in Tampa tomorrow, but probably wasn't listening to radio during those years. Or something. Did they, like, ever do a song that people living in caves would know? And why couldn't WE have copped The Boss??? ::waah::

I couldn't tell you a Goo Goo Dolls song but they've been fairly popular recently- it'll probably be a good draw for young voters, and that's a good thing.

Not that it's exciting, but I played a gig with them back in like '92 before anyone had heard of them. If you asked me then if they would have made it I would have laughed at you.
Goes to show what I know.

4LG, yep. Here I was just all hyped to see The Next Preznit, and then they throw the Goo-Goo Dolls into the mix and I went "huh"?
Heard some stuff on their site, but didn't recognize a single song. That's not unusual, though. I've spent no years away from music, but close to 20 away from radio for the most part.
There should be one hell of a crowd tomorrow night, even on Hallowe'en!

Carp, well, that's kind of exciting!
'92?? They must not be at all who I thought they were. I figured they were from somewhere in the 80s.

According to what I could find about them, their first album was released in '87. They didn't really break big, however, until the post Nirvana wave of alternative stuff like the Gin Blossoms and Cranberries. So, ~1995 is when they would have been on the radio or MTV.

Please remember that, because of the unusually high turnout expected at the polls this year, it has been decided that Democrats will be voting on Tuesday, November 2nd, and Republicans will be voting on Wednesday, November 3rd.
Be sure to remind all your friends.

From pure White House to Number Ten
Taking lives with a smoking pen
President Kill wants killing again

Think about this before you cast your vote.
Look at the following list of names and consider who they would most likely vote for if they were allowed to vote in our coming election,
Martin Luther King
Abraham Lincoln
Thomas Jefferson
Benjamin Franklin
Thomas Paine
Gandhi
Eleanor Roosevelt
Robert Kennedy
Nelson Mandela
Bishop Tutu
The Lorax
When you cast your vote will you be voting the same way as you think the above people will vote?
How closely aligned with these people will you be?

We are on track for historic turnout in this election. Voters are coming out in record numbers for John Kerry.
And that has the Republicans scared. They have no plan, no hope, no way to win this election except to stop people from voting. Their strategy is simple:
1.Discourage Democratic voters from going to the polls by filling the airwaves with predictions of doom and gloom.
2.Delay voting and create lines at polls by challenging voters and election officials.
3.Deny voters the opportunity to cast their votes and have them counted.
But their strategy won't work. We will stop their attempts to deny our rights by using the best weapons in our arsenal: information and education.
It's vital that you know your voting rights. Take a minute today to make sure that others know their rights, too. Download our guide to voting rights:
Remember: Voting is your right, and you are protected under the law. Exercise your right by voting for John Kerry, John Edwards, and all our Democratic candidates on November 2!

Have you contacted your Corporate Media Whore today?
Remember the story about nearly 1,000 Ohio voters' registrations being challenged, because they refused registered mail from the Ohio Republican party? One TTer responded by asking, "Where is the shame?" Why not ask the perpetrators directly?
The Akron Beacon Journal named the four perpetrators as Louis Wray, Barbara Miller, Madge Doerler, and Howard Calhoun. Jack Morrison volunteered to represent them in front of the Summit County Board of Elections, where all 976 challenges were summarily dismissed. (The perps may yet be brought up on felony charges for making fraudulent claims on the challenge forms.)
Jack Morrison, Atty, practices at Amer Cunningham Co., LPA 159 S. Main St., 6th floor, Akron, OH 44308. (330) 762-2411.
Perpetrator Howard Calhoun is also an attorney, at the firm of Calhoun, Waddell, and Hunt, also (coincidentally?) at 159 S. Main St., Ste 707, Akron OH, 44308 (303) 253-1111.
Madge Doerler, interestingly, sponsors an internship "established to benefit those wishing to serve as interns with Republican Party officials, candidates, or officeholders in Summit County, the state of Ohio, or the national capital. The internship is housed within the Ray C. Bliss Institute of Applied Politics." (http://www.uakron.edu/development/ef4.php) Note that the Bliss Insitute of Applied Politics "was founded in 1986 in an effort to promote citizens' knowledge and participation in the political process...Students in the Applied Politics Program at the University of Akron are provided with an up-close, nuts-and-bolts view of the political process. Courses are offered in the study of political parties, interest groups, political communications, campaign management, lobbying, political administration, etc. Students are also REQUIRED TO COMPLETE AN INTERNSHIP IN GOVERNMENT AND POLITICS, WHICH WE VIEW AS AN INTEGRAL AND ESSENTIAL COMPONENT OF THE PROGRAM." (http://www3/uakron.edu/bliss/, emphasis added.)
It is absolutely shameful that someone who sponsors one of these required internships has behaved in such a reprehensible and essentially antidemocratic manner. The Bliss insitute has Republican roots but now claims to be a bipartisan research and training institute. Write to them and demand that they discontinue the Doerler Internship. Address letters to Dr. John C. Green, Director, Bliss Insitute, Akron, OH 44325 (330) 972-5182

Kerry is super rich to be the president of people like me. Now Kerry and Teresa Heinz want kiss black folks.. like me, for our votes and if they are elected, they will go back to their elite circle with rich friends. What Kerry has done for black people lately? Vote for Nadar even if he will loose.

Hmm, did anyone go listen to Stop the Crap? I did, and gotta say, the sentiment is nice, but the performance ain't. If a white guy's gonna rap, he better get a groove first--this guy's way stiff.
