…he’ll be a guest on Morning Joe by the end of the week. Anyone in the GOP willing to hit her is guaranteed such a seat.
Anyone care to make book against me?
BTW I have to disagree with Stacy. It isn’t a case of Palin Phobia it’s a case of Gregg doing legwork for another GOP candidate so he doesn’t have to get his hands dirty with a grass-roots that won’t forgive or forget.
Here are the shots from Friday that I didn’t get a chance to put up yesterday:

Over 120 people were registered for Dinner tonight with a few extra who will be showing up for the actual events.

I’ll be doing some mixing while I can and update later.
Update: 6:26 p.m. The program is now starting begins with prayer, the pledge and the national anthem.
A collection of New Hampshire state reps are on the stage going through the achievement that they have managed to get passed, led by the speaker of the house William O’Brien including a right to work law.
NH Republican State reps including Speaker William O'Brien
(BTW the left is attacking O’Brien for suggesting that the young vote democratic due to their lack of life experience. Only among liberals could the concept that the young lack life experience be controversial.)
Update: Here is Herman’s speech in full from the Reception, haven’t been able to get into the dinner side
Update 3: The speech is being streamed on Herman’s facebook page, here are a few impressive quotes:
“Believe in the greatest country in the world despite it’s imperfections, and we are the greatest country in the world.”
“The genius of the founders is they set the bar high, they could have set it where they were but they set it high so we could work up to that ideal.”
“We need to change this from an entitlement mentality to an empowerment mentality.”
I’m sitting at the counter of Joey’s Diner
Joey's Diner in Amherst NH
where Herman Cain makes a presentation to a group of invited locals.
Mr. Cain will be in NH for several events culminating in a keynote speech at the Hillsborough Lincoln-Reagan Day Reception and Dinner- Keynote Address tonight in Nashua. I hope to be there to cover it.
Update: Had breakfast with an elderly WW 2 & Korean War navy vet named Bob McCloud. He’s seen many presidential candidates pass through NH over the years, his favorite was Ronald Reagan. He is Mitt Romney fan and is not familiar with Herman Cain which is exactly the reason why Mr. Cain is up here.

Scored an interview and will have it up when I have a faster upload location to work from.
