New Hampshire debate rally!
Okay, so I'm a day late. Sue me--I was recovering.
I am here to confirm that the rumors are true. We kicked ass. We drowned out the feeble, manufactured enthusiasm of the other candidate's "supporters." I felt a little sorry for them... Sort of. This is what it looked like when we got started:
I don't think we stopped screaming for more than a few seconds during the entire 2 and a half hour demonstration... and demonstrate we did. We demonstrated our love and support for freedom, honesty, and consistency. And the constitution. Oh, and this Ron guy. By the end, it looked like this:
And my voice is still hoarse. Not just a little hoarse, either. I'm being laughed at by everyone I talk to. We had the largest crowd, the loudest voices, and we got the most attention--not bad for 3 spammers and smoke and mirrors. I'd show you pictures of the other candidates supporters, but I don't have any. I didn't want to waste the space on my 1 gig memory stick. Pictures with nothing in them are boring anyway... so here's some video of us instead:
Okay, so, after the rally--like as I was leaving the parking lot--the storm began... Rudy was near. It was time to head over to Murphy's Tap Room to watch the action...
I'll spare you my assessment of the debate, as I know you've already seen Ron's full 6 minutes of the 2 hour "event." Besides, what was much more important is what happened afterward.
We waited--while Ron was apparently being bombarded by the press--until about 10:30, when Dr. Paul decided to stop by for a little meety greety. He walked in the door, and could hardly get in. The entire building erupted into a firey ball of burning love. We were a hunk of it.
It was loud. The screaming and the flashing (cameras) and the fainting (okay, not really) were a bit overwhelming I think for the good doctor. You'd have thought Thomas Jefferson himself had stepped into the room. Certainly his spirit was with us--hiding behind his bust perched on the mantle above the fireplace. It was absolutely amazing.
I met Dr. Paul's son Rand, and most of his grandkids. They were all very sociable and surprised and friendly. Matt, who blogs at The Daily Paul was particularly enthusiastic. They all seemed stunned by the size and scope of the reception... well, they'd better get used to it--especially if they plan on coming back up to the live free or die state.

I couldn't believe the energy when Dr. Paul showed up at Murphy's Taproom. But that's what happens when you can truly believe in a candidate and his politics.
It's just like you said. This IS really happening!
