Well the holidays have passed and hopefully everyone is getting settled back into their normal routine. Along with that normal routine, it is now time to get serious about the up-coming election.
If you think we still have plenty of time, well standby. The first in the nation Primary/Caucus takes place this evening and our own is around three months from now. I know three months sounds like a long time, but ask one of our local GOP candidates, they’ll probably have a little different opinion.
Tonight the Iowa Caucus took place and it appears to be between Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, and Rick Santorum. But it’s just Iowa and while all primaries are important, I just want to remind you that the folks caucusing in Iowa only make up around 1/10th of 1% of those who will vote in nationally in November. So while all votes are important, just keep in mind that this caucus just gives us a starting point. We still have a good two or three months before we know who the likely GOP nominee for President will be.
Our local Candidates have been quite busy getting out and meeting the good folks of Milam County. They’ve been out putting up signs and knocking on doors. If you haven’t met them yet well stand by, they’ll be by before too long.
If you’d like to meet them all then get some tickets to the February 9th Reagan Day/Texas Independence Celebration to be held at the Cameron VFW post. The Republican Women of Milam County host this event and it will feature and wonderful dinner and will be attended by all the local candidates and most of the state candidates who have already confirmed their attendance.
So get your tickets and come out to enjoy a good night of fellowship with your fellow Milam County Conservatives, meet the candidates, and enjoy an awesome meal; details can be found at http://www.milamgop.org/.
By the way, if you haven’t been to our website then check it out. We have a list of candidates, elected officials, party leadership, and events along with several other bits of information. Check out the candidates list and get involved. All these candidates can use your support and would love to have you help them. For details, give me a shout or email me at williamwhitmire@yahoo.com and I will be happy to help you out.
Hope you all are ready for a busy election year and a successful November as we help ensure Barack Obama can spend all of 2013 in Hawaii!!
Talk to you later,Bill
