I had to be in Chicago for work a few weeks back. I spent the following weekend with my uncle who lives there and is a CFO for a pretty major company. I flew my girlfriend out and we took a road trip on Saturday to Iowa for the Straw Poll. He probably thought we were crazy when I told him we were doing it to support Ron Paul even though we couldn't vote.

A few weeks later I sent him a video showing him some of Ron's stances. Here's the email response I just got:

"We were out walking yesterday on Michigan Ave with Penny and Nate when we heard this large noise coming near us. All uf sudden about 75 people went walking buy yelling "Ron Paul" with all kinds of signs.

It is spreading!!!!"

So, in summary, we need to feel like all we do is kick ass and chew bubblegum... but we are all out of gum. Repitition is the key!

I saw you guys too! I was riding a bus along Michigan ave and my wife goes, "hey aren't those your guys?" And I just smiled! I wanted to yell out the windows.
