Mitt Romney rally in our area Sunday

You’re Invited to a Victory Event with

Mitt Romney

& the Republican Team!


Sunday, November 4th, 2012

Doors Open 2:30 PM | Event Begins 5:30 PM


Shady Brook Farm

931 Stony Hill Road in Morrisville, PA 19067

Romney will hold a rally at Shady Brook Farm Sunday beginning at 5:30 p.m. Shady Brook Farm is at located 931 Stony Hill Road, Yardley. (Use Morrisville in your GPS.)

In the Franklin & Marshall poll two weeks ago, in Pennsylvania, Romney trailed Obama 8 points.  Within just one week, the same poll shows Romney has cut that lead in half.  At least one other poll has Romney ahead in Pennsylvania.  This state hasn't voted for a Republican President since 1988.  So this is huge.

All pundits say Romney must win Ohio or game over.  But polls show Romney so far ahead there with Independents and also now a higher GOP registration than in 2008 that apparently he feels comfortable spending his time with us here, this weekend.  I went to see Mitt in Delco on April 7 when he had just won the GOP nomination and snapped the above photo.  That was exciting with a huge turnout, but Sunday's rally will dwarf it. 

Tickets are free but you must register:

Jack -- Just got an email revision from the campaign saying the event will start at 5 p.m., not 5:30, with doors opening at 2. I plan to be there to film it from the press risers. REMINDER: Daylight Savings Time ends tonight (bummer), so set your clocks back an hour.

Thank you John. The last time I saw Mitt was April 7 in Delco, arriving 90 minutes early, yet still I had to park along a major highway where cars parking there would normally be towed, and walk about a mile, to see Mitt. So your update is critical, thanks again.

I was at Mitt's rally in September at Valley Forge Military Academy in Wayne, which was very last minute. Great crowd, but fortunately, there was sufficient parking within a half-mile radius. Here's my video of that event.

Press setup tomorrow will be at 11. With temps in the 40s, it's going to be a long day. I'm assuming the campaign will have ample lighting for those of us filming, since at 5 o'clock, it will already be getting dark. I'll be counting on coffee and adrenaline to see me through.

Excellent quality video! Yes hopefully the farm will fire up some lights, I suspect so, they won't feel good about placing Mitt in shadow. The press will if they don't.
