Is it just me or do we never see:

Videos or Pictures of rallies.
News coverage
Stories from meetup members in Iowa
Good polling

We see all these things in NH, but not Iowa.

I was under the assumption Iowa is a vast sub-arctic wasteland this time of the year.

Maybe they will get back online when the power comes back.

I think the campaign should FORGET Iowa and put all of their efforts into NH from here on in.

No way. All eggs in one basket is for losing campaigns. Besides, Paul is only 3 percentage points from 3rd place in the Iowa Polls.

the support is spread and it's a sparse state

we will be way above the campaign goal of 10 people per precinct I'm guessing though

what if anything that contains the words "ron paul" is being filtered by someone trying to stop or slow down the revolution

there are people everywhere who favor the elite running are lives so they are taking down ron paul signs, i've been putting flyers up at my college and they get taken down the same day, I even had them approved, I talked to student services and the cops on campus, both didn't know anything, cops said they'd check the cameras,

I bet administration told the cleaning crew to take down anything ron paul related because I don't think a student would walk the whole school to take down flyers, I have to repost them every school day(mon wed fri), 30-40 flyers

Iowa is like a blackhole in many regards. News from there cannot escape.

I wish I knew how those awesome Operation NH ads were doing down there??

I just read a story that Ron Paul addressed 600 people in Council Bluffs.

Yes, don't count Iowa out yet. Those folks take their voting seriously and may well give Ron a listen before it is all over. That's all we can really ask for and should be good enough hopefully. Plus, we have a lot of very hard working volunteers in Iowa.

Hey Hawkeyenick, i think you're right about that. How's support in Iowa city? I'm begining to see more of in in the Quad Cities.

Which school do you go to? I think most people are aware that Paul isn't for subsidizing corperate farming, but at the same time, we are supposed to be anti war here in iowa. I've been able to convert some iowans, and at the very least, even the fence sitters seem receptive and not hostile. Even some romney supporters i talked to the other day were open to his ideas. The only hostility i've met in davenport was a few fred thompson supporters.

do some research on the numbers needed to win Iowa and you will be left with your mouth wide open at how little we need to win.

They're probably too busy kicking neocon butt.
