Rochester, NEW HAMPSHIRE – Senator John McCain will be greeted by anti-war activists when the "Straight Talk Express" rolls up to the Rochester Opera House on Tuesday, July 22 for a town hall meeting. The demonstrators want to make sure McCain listens to what the majority of Americans want – a speedy and responsible end to the war in Iraq.

We are gathering at 9:30 am in front of the Rochester Opera House. Please come and bring your banners and energy. To date, it does not look like there will be a "free speech zone."

10:30 AM: Doors open at Rochester Town Hall, Rochester, NH. RSVP here:

The Opera House is located at 31 Wakefield Street in Rochester.
