Ron Paul and Rick Santorum rallies

On January 30 and February 1, 2012, the week before the Colorado Caucuses, I attended rallies for Ron Paul and Rick Santorum. Naturally, I live-tweeted them.

    @JRHammerschmidt He's speaking now. Pretty good riff on liberty being "divided into pieces," economic (GOP) and social/behavioral (Dem)

    Ron Paul in Denver now talking about ending the drug war. I haven't heard as much about that in debates, election night speeches as I'd like
