If you read the paper you probably did not know that James Mills had Family Campaign Rally last Saturday from 5 to 7 PM at the Ag Center. The media goes on and on this morning about the measly 250 Democrats that showed up for the Democrat Party rally at the Georgia Mountains Center. That number included the candidates (all that there are in North Georgia.) I drove by and saw about 12 yard signs. There was still parking on the square and all around the Georgia Mountains Center. Wow—not.
James had over 600 people show up at the Ag Center for his event. Those people included Lt. Governor Cagle, Congressman Deal, Sheriff Cronic, Commissioners Banks and Powell, and Flowery Branch Councilman Chris Fetterman just to name a few. There was a Siberian Tiger, a band, and Milton Robson with his Bentley and some antique cars (our own Josh Morris brought his ’69(?) Mustang). And that is what I personally saw before I had to go. Where was the press? Lots of political speeches by elected officials, but no reporters. They were probably all at home resting up for the little “big” rally the next day.
