This is wfbjr's wife filling in for him while he's on the scene in Iowa. He wanted me to relay an amusing story from Scott County today, although you must bare with me as I am not nearly as gifted in the art of storytelling as my other-half.
He has spent most of the day working the busy phone banks and has been impressed with the organization of the office. In the spirit of Jonathan's trip, it seems that another caucus volunteer was extremely impressed with the Romney office - a Huckabee supporter.
This particular person has a volunteer friend in the Romney office and he spent a few hours there today just checking things out. I think his quote was, "Wow, where did you get all these people?", referring to the number of Romney supporters trying to get out the vote. Not only did he make comment after comment about the structure and organization (it doesn't seem like Huckabee has a Scott County office), but he was actually interviewed by a news organization while in the Romney office. Wfbjr reports that it was quite funny watching a Huckabee supporter being interviewed with "Vote for Romney" signs behind him. His comment to the media was that his observation was the vast difference in how Huckabee and Romney are running their campaigns.
So that's all I have for now, unless you count the number of times my husband has eaten at Red Robin in the 30 hours he has been in Iowa. Good thing our treadmill is being delivered on Tuesday.
