#1 "Hey, folks, there are at least 15 more seats here on the side, if you want to move from the back,"
Welcome to Vigorous Pace, Wisconsin -- population 15.

#2 Hillary even called me at my home last evening. I hung up on her.

#3 Darrell: Ahem. Excuse me, Wisconsin has some major cultural centers, like Phelps, pop. 400 or so, "The Playground of the North."

I think that Hillary did most of her campaigning in Democrat-friendly Milwaukee and here in "Berkeley on the Lake". The Madison newspapers have been full of campaign reports on visits from the Clinton Clan and Obama. Huckabee and McCain got some space; but I don't think they spent as much time here. Huckabee was up in Eau Claire, I think. All the other candidates are making automatic phone calls; Obama's campaign had real live human beings calling. Twice. I gave each caller a polite piece of my mind.

I can't see Hilary's act playing up north.

Voter turnout may be less than 35 percent. We've had subzero and ice storms and we're running out of salt. Double the usual snowfall this year. Current weather score: Jet Stream 1, Groundhog 0.

#4 I can understand your weather sentiment 'mom'; but remember only three people need show up at the primary, three to make it decisive, two for a draw and one to win!
