News from Iowa

I think he has one, doesn't he? He has an Iowa campaign coordinator.

There is no Iowa HQ facility. There may be one in the future but I'm really not sure it's needed - who's going to sit in it all day? We all have cell phones so it's not like we need a building with banks of phones.

I kind of like poppop's idea of an Iowa HQ on wheels.
 
Bill and Hillary are in Des Moines tonite at the Iowa State Fairgrounds. It's being broadcast live on c-span.

Barf.
 
Romney may be blanketing the state with DVDs and mail, but how much passion can small town midwesterners have for a Massachusetts Mormon? (And I bet people in Iowa are dog lovers too. :))

We've seen that Ron Paul is a *spark* that ignites the dry kindling of lies that have been laid for years. Since Iowa endures this process every 4 years, people should know "slick" when they see it. No wonder Clinton did poorly. Romney probably does not have this sewn up as easily as it might first appear.

well, we better get those DVD's out there cause it looks like others are gonna be copying what others are gonna try to do here!

I just feel Ron is not doing enough....
 
ICA = Christian Coalition

I saw an unrelated article today that said the Iowa Christian Alliance (co-sponsors of the infamous ITR/ICA forum) was formerly known as the Christian Coalition of Iowa.

I never realized before today that ICA was the Christian Coalition in a new wrapper.
 
Can someone from Iowa get phone lists to those of us who can't make it up there, but would like to help from afar?

Please watch the potential slurs of Mormons since I am one and am 100% supporting Ron Paul. It was totally unncessary to add Mormon. Mass ceratinly was enough. Fair enough?

I agree. I kind of cringed when I saw that myself and I'm not even Morman. Labels can be so polarizing no matter what group it is.
 
what?

That's ridiculous. How is just mentioning that he's a Mormon a slur. (I notice that you mentioned potential) It's no more a slur than if someone only mentioned
my religion when talking about me. Not a slur. I object to such overreaction and exaggeration.

I don't want this thread to get distracting. I meant that in an affinity sense. As in 2004, when there was plenty of discussion about whether Lieberman could "play well" in areas with low Jewish populations. That's all.

It's not worth elaborating on, beyond that. Let's focus on building a coalition that can elect our candidate.

Enough said, friends. Thanks. Let's all move forward together to elect Ron Paul!

Now back to your regularly scheduled "News from Iowa" programming...
 
Most unusual story from the Iowa campaign trail today:

An Ohio man with a large knife was arrested outside Obama's hotel in Ottumwa yesterday morning. Obama's secret service agents found him loitering.

Biden, Clinton, Dodd (with Paul Simon), and Tommy Thompson are all on the ground here today and tomorrow.

I watch very little TV but I'm amazed at the number of commercials I've seen for Dodd.
 
Hopefully, some of our folks taped NOT only Paul's talk but also taped so we could see the size of the Paul aduience and the size of the Forum audience.

I know everyone has seen the videos on YouTube of the rally, but I finally edited my footage and uploaded them. I begin at the Des Moines Arts Festival, and then onto the rally. I also included footage of the speakers prior to Dr. Paul and BOTH National Anthems.

Somehow I missed the one you are calling Liberty. Boy he was really on a roll there. It's amazing how he can speak so profoundly without barely peeking at his notes.

You might want to edit your post..I think you fogrot part 8.
