Ron Paul kicks off two-day tour of Maine in Bangor
By Eric Russell, BDN Staff
Jan. 27, 2012
BANGOR, Maine — Declaring the “freedom movement alive and well,” Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul kicked off a two-day statewide tour in Bangor on Friday with the hope of convincing enough delegates to support him at Maine’s caucuses, which begin next weekend.
Paul, the 76-year-old Congressman from Texas, is the only current GOP candidate who has yet to win a state’s primary or caucus, but he has been racking up delegates in many states.
“We came to where the action is. We came to get delegates. That’s the name of the game. That’s how you win an election,” he told a crowd of about 300 people packed inside the Union Street Brick Church in downtown Bangor...
10 people in the last 3 days have stopped me to talk about Ron Paul, in a good way... Because...
Submitted by jamespj07 on Sat, 01/28/2012 - 00:37I wear buttons, I have bumper stickers & side magnets for my car. And I know most of the issues well. I am able to dis-spell myths about Ron Paul & offer truthful insights to people. Please wear your RP 2012 gear & get ready to talk to people! A guy came up to me at the grocery store today & shook my hand & praised Ron Paul. The cashier at that same store praised Dr. Paul & said she 'loved him'. Another lady at that same store the day before asked me if I had anymore Ron Paul buttons. I gave her my button & a yard sign. The cashier at chipotle commented on my RP button & said she hoped he got elected because "he is a genius". The cashier at starbucks asked me about Ron Paul. A man on a bicycle pulled up to my parked car & knocked on my window to talk about Ron Paul. This is all in the past few days. This has been happening for weeks now. The point is: wear your gear! Promote Ron Paul! I get more comments from my RP 2012 Button than anything else. I will where some sort of RP promotional gear, every where I go. Also, remember, if someone comes to you praising RP & they want him to win, get there information to remind them about the caucus &/or primaries & tell them the best way to get involved. Get them to sign up with you or send their contact info to the local RP offices nearby, or to visit official campaign website & sign up in their state. This is the whole idea: to galvanize support, rally & climax at the caucuses/primaries. Happy promoting!

Submitted by greg8835 on Fri, 01/27/2012 - 20:15According to Ron Paul official site, there will be two endorsements made in Maine tomorrow along the campaign trail.

So now it is time for the guessing game. I believe one of the people to endorse Paul will be Governor of Maine, Paul LePage. According to CNN Political Ticker, Paul made an unexpected stop to meet with the Governor. It also states that the Governor called Paul to meet up. Nothing discussed was released. Then just a little later Ron Paul's site had up the link above. He won the 2010 Maine Gubernatorial on a wave of Tea Party support.

So post in comments what you think. Is this plausible? Any ideas who the second one to endorse him will be?
Paul Makes Unannounced Stop To Meet With Maine Governor
Submitted by Notslla Ω™ on Fri, 01/27/2012 - 18:42http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2012/01/27/paul-makes-u...
Lewiston, Maine (CNN) - Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul met with Maine Republican Gov. Paul LePage on Friday, a stop that was not announced as part of the congressman's public schedule.
"He called and asked to meet," Paul told CNN when asked how the meeting with LePage came about.
Paul campaign manager Jesse Benton said the meeting went well. It's unclear what the two men discussed.
'Endorse Liberty' Super PAC to Broadcast 30 Minute Ron Paul TV Special in Florida
Submitted by Notslla Ω™ on Fri, 01/27/2012 - 16:46Here is what the people in Florida will see:
MIAMI, Jan 27, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Endorse Liberty, a political action committee supporting Ron Paul for President, announced today that it has purchased multiple 30 minute prime time slots on Florida's WHDT TV, the largest independent broadcaster in Florida and America's first HD network, to air a special program in advance of the Florida Republican primary. The special features short films about the candidate, including "Blowback," which outlines Ron Paul's foreign and military policy for America.
Couldn't believe my eyes on Redstate this morning
Submitted by Floydius on Fri, 01/27/2012 - 10:26Is this the same place that regularly bans Ron Paul supporters?
"Then there was Ron Paul. Many of us quickly dismiss Ron Paul, but his performance was stellar. He offered extremely sound responses on healthcare, education, border security, and more. Very few of the questions were on foreign policy, which is where he tends to go off the reservation. Last night he came off as warm, funny, and right on the mark. It was his best debate performance. Santorum and Paul benefited from Romney and Gingrich’s constant bickering."

Via Drudge: "The Ron Paul Media Blackout Is Back On"
Submitted by Brian Middleton on Fri, 01/27/2012 - 09:05Link from The Drudge Report.
"After a brief spike in interest, the mainstream media coverage of GOP candidate Ron Paul is back to nearly nothing, according to the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism. This week, less than 5 percent of all campaign stories focused on Paul, the lowest point since Dec. 11. when strong performances in Iowa and New Hampshire helped stoke some interest. Over the same period, Paul's performance in the polls has only improved, going from the single digits to 12.7 percent, putting him nearly even with Rick Santorum, in the current RealClearPolitics average."

Colonel Douglas Macgregor: "Ron Paul Best For National Defense"
Submitted by edaquasure on Fri, 01/27/2012 - 07:59Retired U.S. Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor explains why Rep. Ron Paul's plan would actually strengthen the U.S. military:
"As Ron Paul has pointed out, we do need to scale back our overseas footprint. Our presence in many parts of the world today is actually a catalyst for conflict. We're not cultivating peaceful conditions, in many cases we're doing the opposite..."
...
"Ron Paul is the only man who is in touch with reality"!"

BREAKING: Nevada GOP Changing The Rules!
Submitted by everlasticity on Fri, 01/27/2012 - 05:23Looks like Money really can purchase elections. Sheldon Adelson, who donated 5 million to Gingrich's PAC, and whose wife donated another 5 million, has been granted a Special Evening Caucus at a private school that Adelson owns.
http://blog.sfgate.com/nov05election/2012/01/27/ron-paul-cam...
The Shenanigans must be stopped. Virgina was able to defend its election rules, Nevada can do the same. If it was so important to these guys to participate in the caucus, then they should have petitioned their GOP before the caucus rules were posted. What are we going to do about it?
EDIT: (Thanks to John P Slevin)
The original post is incorrect
Virginia is a primary. Nevada is a caucus.
World of difference there.
The caucus is run by the GOP and not by the government, as elections are run.
Therefore, it is false to compare caucus to primary as though they are the same thing.
//////////// END CORRECTION.
So let me reiterate. WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
