New article, about the Paul campaign ramping up in Iowa early.

He attributes the earlier move toward the formal trappings of a campaign to one thing: his supporters. “I think it’s because of the pressure I’m getting from some enthusiastic supporters who want to get moving,” Paul said in a telephone interview on Monday. “I haven’t even had the final, official announcement and they said, well, the exploratory committee has to have an office too, you know.”


I thought at the time that he could have improved his standing in Iowa had he spent more time here and built a stronger organization aimed at turning out supporters on caucus night.


Paul doesn’t disagree with that assessment. “Maybe those supporters out there share that and that’s why they’re pressuring me into doing more,” he said. Paul has a lot more going for him than he did in 2008.
Here I am in January at the swearing in with Rand trying to convince Ron to run early by giving him the hard sell ;) :D
