Oh, come on, if you are going to bump it, it should be with the NH Grassroots video / light show...

You have to hand it to Ron Paul supporters, they are the most animated in this election season. For some, like Republican challenger Newt Gingrich, their enthusiasm might even border on the annoying.

At least one hundred Paul supporters stood in front of Newt’s campaign headquarters on Elm Street in Manchester after 6 pm Monday, celebrating their candidate with songs and a laser light show.

I was driving down Elm in a GMC Envoy and had to power down the passenger window. Is that Frank Sinatra’s New York, New York? It is, only the singer is saying it’s up to the voters to chose Ron Paul instead of its up to you, New York, New York. A small amplifier and a speaker stood bungie corded to the top of a white Ford mini van that looked like it had been painted from a can of egg shell white Behr from Lowes. On the hood was a sign reading Ron Paul Revolution. The letters EVOL were spelled backwards so it read LOVE. Yup, these guys love Ron Paul. Who loves Newt? Does any voter love Newt?

I looked for a place to park, which is not easy this time of year in Manchester. Every sidewalk spot is taken. At the Radisson, CBS and the AP are recording. A full moon makes a bit easier to see all the cable wires crawling across the sidewalk under ready-made speed bumps. A chubby woman nearly trips over one in front of me and a cop holding a doberman on a leash.

Some lone wolf carrying an Occupy New Hampshire Primaries sign shouts out “Occupy Democracy! Down with bureaucracy!” His voice vanishes, uncared for like a Tweet.

Closer to Newt’s office, a CVS sign is on the fritz. The letter C is blinking red like a siren. A Manchester police car is parked on the corner of Elm and Stark in front of Ben & Jerry’s where loud rap music is playing an ode to Ron Paul. The guy playing it tells me that a bunch of grassroots singers nationwide made these songs for Paul and they have been flowing into the campaign since Iowa. This week, country pop singer Kelly Clarkson endorsed Paul on Twitter.

I’m thinking that maybe there’s got to be a Newt supporter in the bunch out here, having some friendly words with one another, bad mouthing Obama, the liberals and, of course, the media bias. I did see four Newt supporters. Two young girls had their signs dangling limp to their sides. Two middle aged white men cowered back against the office window, smoking. I looked over their shoulders through the window at dozens of Newt volunteers all crammed into the room, not coming out. Paul supporters had effectively barricaded them inside. Another reporter was inside, writing in a yellow lined notepad the illegible scribble of a New Yorker journalist.

She comes out to join the party. No Newt supporters follow her. We shake hands.

Good for you. I've been playing with ideas of how to use NDAA and the wars as bait for a registration drive. CA registration doesn't end until May, and by the June primary some of Ron's delegates results may even be hard enough to provide momentum.

At least, that is my hope.

But people need a VERY concrete reason to register Republican in this state, and NDAA is it, it seems to me.
