Then I do the work of getting it down on paper, because I'm the designated typist, and I'm also the person whose job it is to hold the lantern while the kid does the digging. What is the kid digging for? The stuff. Details and clues and images, invention, fresh ideas, an intuitive understanding of people. I tell you, the holder of the lantern doesn't even know what the kid is digging for half the time - but she knows gold when she sees it.

The Road Ahead Looks... Interesting

 

I'm all for shaking things up. It's healthy when it's done to reorganize and regroup.

But I have to wonder whether the new RPI chairman, Ron Paul's guy - AJ Spiker, will be able to unite the GOP in Iowa.

Some potential road blocks:

  • AJ was Ron Paul's co-chair in Iowa, and Ron Paul hasn't said that he would support the eventual nominee or even rule out a third party run.
  • Ron Paul is often down in the mouth about the GOP. Where does AJ stand?
  • Ron Paul's crew is somewhat known for not mixing too well with the GOP.
  • The RPI chair is chiefly a fundraising position. AJ's gonna have to pretty quickly establish himself as being, you know, all about the GOP.
Well done, Campaign for Liberty... you did a great job setting the stage for the election of your guy. Now, can you unite the party in Iowa, from the establishment down to the grassroots?
