Another Perspective on the Strafford County GOP Picnic

This report is from Dave Mincin, the Strafford County Co-chair for Ron Paul:
What a fantastic day for Ron Paul supporters! We had a steady stream of folks stopping by the table to chat, pick up literature, signs, t-shirts, buttons, whatever. One couple drove up from Long Island, the Mrs went to high school with the Paul's back in Dormont, PA, and even attended their wedding.
We distributed over 100 signs, sold in excess 60 t-shirts, and what buttons we had went too. Late in the day we had to tell folks wanting signs to take one off the road on your way out. As I left I didn't see a Ron Paul sign standing.
I had a chance to talk to Phyllis Woods, the Strafford County Chair. She
was elated that we all came out to support their event, and our candidate. Sam Cataldo, organizer of the picnic, and a well known and respected Strafford County Republican said, "We invited all the presidential candidates, and their supporters." Later Sam said, "Thank you for helping make our Picnic a success."
My thinking is that thank you should go to all you folks who helped with the booth, and even more so you folks who came out to support Dr Paul.
Foster's had a decent article on the event, although it seems they must have left before the results of the straw vote came out.

Oops! Seems like I messed up a bit! All those signs I said pick up on your way out weren't from the campaign. Many were Art's! Seems he lost about $150 worth of signs he paid for. Really would be super if you could send a couple bucks to HQ to help Art recoup his costs. Just let Kate know the donation if for Art.
Thanks
