Keith Lepor speaks to me at the Plymouth County GOP straw poll on 9/1/2010
His point about volunteers is very important. Other than money people willing to hold signs, write letters and knock on doors are the most important things that a campaign can have to win.
Examiner Article: Signs of the times in Massachusetts: GOP and Tea Parties on the rise

My latest for the Examiner touches on a sure sign of the resurgence of the GOP in the Bay state:
If you look at the tea parties the signs are they are healthy. Glenn Beck drew 300k plus to Washington, Candidates republican and democrat are attending Tea Party events and candidates they support are winning national races over sitting incumbents (Joe Miller).
These are the signs of a movement that is strong and relevant. Just as importantly the Mass. GOP is also showing such signs.
There was a time when calling the GOP strong and relevant in Massachusetts would have produced laughs and guffaws… no longer!
Is it any wonder that some continue to tpaint the tea party as extreme while in Michigan democrats and unions go so far as to run fake tea party candidates of their own to rescue endangered liberals?
As always you can find the rest of my examiner articles here.
