Donated $400 personally. Solicited donations of about $1000 from my family and pledges of votes(FROM LIBERAL/SOCIALIST DEMOCRATS PEOPLE!!! THEY FILLED OUT VOTER REGISTRATION CARDS AS REPUBLICANS!!!)

I've hit my entire email group, and went back around my own neighborhood to collect voter registration cards along with canned goods that people had pledged to give to shelters for Christmas, and handed out a new slim jim than I gave them last time.

Tonight, I'm heading to Walmart in my town and waiting outside until they open the doors, waving our signs, handing out slim jims and stuff like that. We're doing it real big. EVERYONE GET OFF YOUR ASS AND SHAKE SOME HANDS, BABY!

Got two of the inlaws in the loop now and told them about Dec 16. One of them really wants her son home from Iraq...

I work retail and well I had to work today but I did give a coworker two slim jims and printed out Ron's stance on the issues from his website to her because she wanted to take a look. One more vote for Ron Paul IMO. This week I also got my boss to endorse Ron and now he and I both wear our Ron Paul buttons at work with pride! He also recieved some yard signs!

As planned, I had bought a few copies of the USA Today paper and shared the advertisment with extended family members who had not heard of him.
The senior member of this family gathering, commented that while he believed in the man and his positions, he did not feel the "powers that be" would EVER let such a candidate be allowed in the White House.
He reminded me of the Kennedy assasination and all the leaders in African nations and others, who were removed from their positions by whatever means necessary. We can only hope this seasoned voter is wrong. God be with Dr. Paul!

I live near Detroit. I got up early and drove downtown to join my Meet Up group to pass out slim jims at our annual nationally televised parade. When I got home my daughter was watching the parade and she said she saw people with Ron Paul signs. At the end of the parade, as we watched together, Santa arrived to receive the key to the city from the mayor, and we saw a huge Ron Paul sign held aloft in the background. Perhaps many of you saw this as well.

Later at dinner I discussed Dr. Paul with my in-laws, treading lightly. They are potential converts and I don't want to come on too strong. They seemed impressed by the USA Today ad and other recent media attention.

I also got a copy of USA Today and showed off the ad to my family.

Then, being the good NHites that we are, some of us sat around and discussed Iraq and the Presidential race for an hour or so. :) The feeling is pretty certain that Paul will score top 2 in NH.

I didn't have a camera with me, but the ex and I were just out for a couple hours putting signs on all the major roads and near the entrances and exits to the malls, shopping centers, and wal-mart.

And then we'll be getting up at some ungodly hour to go hit the mall and hand out slim jims.

Continued writing my letters to Iowa voters. Sent Thanksgiving e-cards to people in my address book with a link to Ron Paul YouTube videos and the official website. :)

And quite oddly, a car sped past and then flew into a parking lot in front of us yelling something about Ron Paul while we were planting a sign along one of the highways. It was a group of young guys, and they were going nuts. No clue whether it was positive or negative because they were all yelling and we could only make out a few "Ron Pauls" and a couple f-bombs, and that was about it. No bumper stickers or anything on the car. Crazy.
