Gymnastics Dads Against Bush
Forget the soccer moms and the Nascar vote. The Hispanic and the sportsman vote got nothing on us. I think we are the group that the Democrats should be courting! We have the power to make or break the nominee but I have yet to see any of the major candidates show up at the gym that we attend three to four days a week. Not one has even shown up at a USGA meet! I want to be courted. I want to know where the candidates stand on the rising cost of gymnastics clubs in this country. Alot of families are hurting and going without some of the basics because of these costs. This group can no longer be ignored. We are organized, very powerful and need to be addressed! We can make the difference in this election.

1. Not another "bloc"...
No offense personally, I'm sure "gymnastics dads" are great people. I'm just really, really tired of hearing about soccer moms and NASCAR dads. Truth is most of them don't vote as a bloc to begin with and are very splintered. It's all BS pundit talk to fill in the time between their commercials.

3. Still early
It's called humor, satire. Another cup of coffee and you'll get it.
