If you're hungry tomorrow, Sen. Bernie Sanders will host two barbecues to muster support for presidential candidate Barack Obama.
The first is at noon at Mount Anthony Union High School in Bennington.
The second at 5 p.m. in the Middlebury Green.
The Republican National Committee obviously has feelers out for every last thing going on around the country because the organization weighed in on Sanders' BBQs today, mistakenly placing the events at Sanders' Burlington home:
"Barbeques at the house of a self-described socialist will not convince
voters in Vermont that Barack Obama's plans to ignore our country's vast
resources by continuing to rely on foreign countries is a good way to solve our
energy crisis or that raising taxes on individuals making $42,000 a year will
fix our economy. America deserves a leader who will deliver solutions to
the challenges confronting our nation. John McCain always has put
partisanship aside to serve the best interest of the country, something Barack
Obama, ranked 'most liberal' in the Senate, has demonstrated an unwillingness
and inability to do."
--Blair Latoff, RNC Spokeswoman
Perhaps Gov. Jim Douglas can put on a competing barbecue at his hometown Middlebury green for John McCain and we can see who serves more burgers.
