Interesting story here by Jeralyn, Section Elections 2008.
She highlights a few Iowans immersed in the peaking political process at a house party.
Today's afternoon delight was a Mitt Romney house party at the home of Ann Warren and family.
#1: Meet former minister, Oscar Poale:
#2: Meet Rich:
After chatting with Oscar Poale, above, a former minister who now owns a Georgia Bar-B-Q place and shows up at a lot of Romney events, I began talking to Rich, who lives a few doors down from the Warrens.
Rich was in attendance because a Romney campaign volunteer
knocked on his door and invited him. He's 37, has a wife and 2 kids and moved
here a few years ago from Reno, NV.He's an evangelical, and at the start of today's house party, is undecided who he
will caucus for -- it's between Romney and McCain. He thinks a Governor has
a better chance than a Senator. But, he likes McCain's war experience and
what he's said about Pakistan. On the other hand he said, Romney did some
good stuff as Governor.
As an evangelical, he's not too concerned about Romney's Mormonism. He likes that Romney has been married to the same woman for so long and has a close family. I ask him about Huckabee and he says he has some concerns -- he thinks Huckabee advertises his religion as a selling point.
This will be one exciting finish!
