The Bush folks make you sign something that basically says you will
support Bush. This adds an extra way in which the woman in question could
be charged. She was violating her contract.

The Kerry folks don't have anything you have to sign to get in and many
people from the bush camp have gone to and protested at the Kerry
meetings. I don't think there has been any net effect from this effor so
I don't think the Bush folks really gain anything from having a hand
picked crowd bussed in. For that matter they may loose the chance to
speak to the unconverted.
