Just wanted to share with everyone here that the good Doctor made it through "State of Emergency" type weather conditions last night and spoke in Spokane. Considering we are a minor media outlet with about 300,000 in the Greater Spokane area (including North Idaho) and that there was a state of emergency in Eastern Washington and North Idaho due to the snow, it was amazing to see about a thousand lovers of freedom come out to hear Dr Paul speak! (Even the liberal local newspaper, the Spokesman Review tallied 900.)
Dr Paul is picking up steam again. You see the frustration in guys like Terry Jeffrey when they contemplate John McCain the nominee. They are forced to speak out more for Dr Paul and give him another look. MSNBC reports he might win Maine. He is pulling in huge amounts of donations today. People continue to flock to hear him speak.
Let's take this all the way to the White House! Do all you can! Donate, canvass, caucus, write letters to the editor, call in to media outlets, do whatever you can in your realm of influence and let's see Dr Paul the next president of the United States.

Rally was great
I didn't consider the weather to be state of emergency per sae, but it was pretty crappy. I got 6 more inches of snow the night before, and some that morning. Then again- I have almost 3 feet of it outside up north here (I can almost throw a rock and hit Canada from my house) so I guess I'm just used to snow.
Nonetheless, I just took it easy and made it down anyway. It was well worth it, other than finding a suitable place to park my monster truck of a 4x4.
Moral of the story: we WA guys are highly dedicated supporters up here. The good doctor has a lot of friends up north- and there was a shitload of them at the rally.
I kept hearing Ron Pauls' name...
(favorably) all day yesterday--including a guest on Coast To Coast AM. So many hate the idea of McCain getting the nomination, that Ron Paul is getting more consideration.

Ron Paul for President 2008
Thanks for the update

Mc Cain says RP 'The Most Honest man in politics'
I will think of all you canvassors and precinct leaders at the front line.
Good luck out there &Thank you. It's appreciated.
From Huffington Post - 'Known for drawing a hard line based on a strict interpretation of the Constitution, fiscal responsibility and libertarian ideology, Ron Paul is considered somewhat of a maverick - once described by current opponent John McCain as "the most honest man in Congress."-
