U.S. News and World Report mentioned Branson on the magazine's blog this morning calling Branson Hollywood with a twang. Noting Branson's past political contributions and a recent fundraising event hosted at the Earls house for Mike Huckabee the post says Fred Thompson will be coming.
I talked to a couple Fredheads in Branson today; I'm sure they'll be excited. What the article didn't mention was who is getting the most money from contributers in Branson. We've been keeping a scorecard. As of June 30th Missouri's top 5 presidential hopeful by "greenvote" (cold hard cash)
