One of my favorite moments in the LP to date was being the final speaker at a roast for Melinda Pillsbury-Foster, one of the most hardworking activists this
party has ever known. She has an article on Mary Ruwart at www.nolanchart.com/article3408.html that is well worth reading.
P.S. I was really, really funny the night of that roast. I wonder what became of me?

Excellent, thought provoking article. On another note, how can we generate more "buzz" for Mary, as both Barr and W.A.R. are getting more
"ink" than Ms. Ruwart.

Ruwart's claim to fame is her strength on issues and Q&A: the campaign really needs to get some issue content online and out to the media, and get the radio bookings. Once they've done the former, we'll have some material to take to the blogosphere and meetups, and be able to press some delegates to get off the fence and announce for her. Many are waiting for the campaign to get active, and given some of the startling things Barr has been saying over the past several days, I'm confident that Ruwart campaign activity will bear quick fruit in the nomination battle. Truth be told, I think she will begin to get outside coverage in the media only after she wins the nomination, but Denver isn't very far off. Just my opinion: I could be wrong. |
