There were way more than 250 people there. Nobody booed and Bush was never mentioned.
Don't let what the media says discourage you.

When Rand spoke of Bush trying to keep his dad from winning the Texas election. Not for Bush as is, but what he did as Texas governor against Ron.

I don't recall Rand mentioning that, and I don't recall hearing any amount of booing.
I'm not saying it didn't happen. All I'm saying is that I didn't notice it.

The Globe says that Dr. Paul mentioned Bush.

"When Paul took the stage he was not speaking to a typical Republican audience.
When he mentioned President Bush the crowd booed."

Another weird thing about that article is the title..

"Paul shows that Romney is not the only one with a big"

Big what?

I have no idea if the reported trips to Hanover and Henniker are even accurate.
You'd think there'd be mention of it somewhere. No local Meetup mentioned it.

I'm cornfused.

Yes! And within the last ten minutes. I was just there. Maybe they're editing it to add some actual truth to it.

On second thought, maybe they didn't take it down. I think the Globe limits how many times you can view an article before they want you to pay.

Did anyone canvass?, it sounds like most people just went home. 50,000 doors was the goal, anyone know if that is being met?

The numbers in the Boston Globe article are obviously wrong.

Perhaps it'd be wise to mail them and correct them before this story goes into tomorrow's paper.
