Ask the high school kids (accompanied by their civics teacher -- or whatever "civics" is called these days) from your home state how they weren't allowed into a Bush campaign event, because when they were asked for ID, one kid had a Kerry sticker on his wallet. They had tickets for the event.
Don't pretend this is news to you. Perhaps the Bush ops have gotten enough flak about how completely un-American that is, that they've stopped doing it.
Hell, a bunch of housewives (Republicans, by the way -- at least until this happened) weren't allowed into a Bush rally because they were wearing shirts that said "Moms for Civil Liberties" or some such innocuous (not inherently D or R) phrase. Can't say for sure whether that was Minnesota; I think it wasn't.
Again, don't pretend this is news. Although if your only source for news is The Washington Times, or Fox News, perhaps you might have missed it.
