Huge Crowd for Ron Paul in New Hampshire

EPJ reader Ben Johnson emails:
Hi Robert,

I was at the Concord event last evening for the opening of Dr. Paul's campaign outpost.

My friend was at the 2008 opening, he said about 40 people attended it. Last evening I guessed there were about 500, and another news service has put it at 600.

Several of the people there were unfamiliar with him as a candidate, but they were probably in a minority. After his speech, the line to see him was over an hour long.
Given that presidential candidates are rolling through New Hampshire on a daily basis and the last thing a New Hampshire resident needs to do is meet another presidential candidate, a crowd of 500 plus to see Ron Paul is very big.

The juggernaut is growing.
