night, with the rallying cry: "Bring us the win!'' The leader gave a stirring 20-minute speech before a packed United Bermuda Party convention at the Number One Shed on Front Street.

And she said the prospect of a PLP Government was "frightening'', because of the "dirt and vitriol'' surrounding some of the Opposition's pre-election campaigning.

Ms Gordon, 43, promised a Bermuda "for all of us, not some of us'' should her team win through to victory on election day.

"Not a place that will divide us,'' she added. "Not a place that will separate us. Not a place that will make us feel like we don't belong.'' She pointed to 30 years of UBP success stories, including a 21st century airport, houses to withstand hurricanes, one car per residence and the preservation of Bermuda's beauty.

The Premier promised full backing for E-Commerce, because "the way of the future is knowledge-based''.

But she said: "It's not the houses and all of our pastel colours that make Bermuda special.

"It's us. It's all of us. We make Bermuda special.'' Ms Gordon repeatedly claimed the event was "not a rally'' -- despite the wild cheers of throngs of party workers and supporters.

And she urged everyone in the audience to get fellow UBP voters in their cars, on their bikes and even in their wheelbarrows to go to the polling stations on Monday.

The leader said UBP supporters were conservative because they had "something to conserve'', and worked for their accomplishments.

And she reflected on Bermuda's not so proud past, saying: "There have been some things that were shameful in this country.

"But we continue to walk upward, forward and onward because when we can link hands, we move forward together.

"We believe in a Bermuda for all of us. We include all of our people -- the ones we fight with, the ones we don't.

"The Bermuda that you wake up to on Tuesday morning will be a Bermuda that we all want. We are not going to let Bermuda down.

"We have come a long way baby. Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to come home.

Bring us the win. Bring us the win.''
