My bags are packed and I'm just tying up some loose ends

So I think I am finally ready to start my trek to "The Granite State"! I have never packed so much for one trip in my life! I'm probably going to be having 12-15 hour days for most of my time there and I don't want to spend any time in a laundromat; for this reason I sucked it up and bought a lot of warm clothes.

Lucky for me (I guess), I spent 4 days in northeast Ohio over the past week and I got a little taste of Mother Nature during my time there. I shouldn't be that shocked when I get to New Hampshire; in fact, it should feel significantly warmer than when I arrived in Cleveland last Sunday night.

I am ready to do whatever is asked of me over the next 10 days to make sure that Senator Clinton has the best possible chance to win the New Hampshire primary and the Democratic nomination. I expect that I will be doing a little bit of everything during this time: visibility, door-to-door, phone banking, and whatever else they could possibly need from me. Whatever they need, I am their guy!

I already have a great deal of experience in retail politics, having already been a candidate myself in the past; however, I am really looking forward to seeing retail politicking in the context of presidential politics. It is really hard to comprehend that there is such a battle in the trenches for a relatively small number of votes. It should be fun to watch and participate in the process.

Next time I post I will be in New Hampshire! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HILLLLLLLLLLLLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!
