August 8th, 2007 by eric
If you are a Mitt Romney supporter living somewhere in the area of Iowa, please attend the Ames, Iowa Straw Poll this Saturday, August 11, 2007. Although some political pundits have already predicted a victory for Mitt Romney at the event, who can be sure? Please attend and cast your vote for Mitt Romney. This is going to be a huge political event with lots of music, food, and people. Several of the Republican candidates will be speaking and moving in the crowds to shake hands. You will be likely to remember this for years to come, particularly if this will be your first time to attend a straw poll.
In preparation for the event, Mitt’s sons have been driving a Winnebago all over the state of Iowa visiting all 99 counties. Please watch this video on Mitt TV called 24 Hours on the Trail, Part 1
