70 degrees and clear here in Myrtle Beach. Though I think this area would be more of a Romney stronghold (Horry county tends to be more moderate), so that could help to keep Newt in check.
I was there. Davis made a great speech in his intro. He shook my hand after and talked to me briefly why the teaparty should be behind Paul. I would estimate there to have been 250-300 people in attendance.
I just got this email, and I'm assuming it's the Davis endorsement. I happen to live in Myrtle Beach, so I'll go check it out and report back! I'll try to get some pics. Freaking excited, never seen Dr. Paul live before!!
