Johnson will come to Richmond!  We’ll try to get an interview with him for Virginia Right [and Conflicted Libertarian, too] so let me or Tom White know!) for two radio interviews and a lecture.

At 7:08 am, Governor Johnson will be on WCHV (1260 AM and 94.1 FM) taking questions.  Call at 434.817.7653!  Try to mention Virginia Right (or Conflicted Libertarian) while you are at it!

From 1pm to 2pm, Governor Johnson will be the guest on the Rob Schilling Show (A great show by the way!) on WINA AM 1070 (see http://schillingshow.com)  Ask him a question!  Call 434.977.1070.  Don’t forget Virginia Right!

At 7pm that evening, Governor Johnson will speak at the Northside Library in Charlottesville.  I strongly recommend you go.  If I did not have a church meeting that night, I’d be there!

JINDAL STRONG SECOND AND PAUL FOURTH! http://jindal2012blog.com/an-amazing-straw-poll-from-cpac-jindal-strong-second-and-paul-fourth/ http://jindal2012blog.com/an-amazing-straw-poll-from-cpac-jindal-strong-second-and-paul-fourth/#comments Thu, 18 Feb 2010 13:04:19 +0000 Elwood Earl "Sandy" Sanders, Jr. http://jindal2012blog.com/?p=1055 I am not at CPAC due to family commitments this weekend but a fellow blogger and good friend, Tom White is there on behalf of his blog:  www.varight.com . Visit Tom White’s site and say hello – tell ‘em Sandy sent you!

But the CPAC straw poll is out and there are two surprises:  In a solid second place, just six points behind former Governor Mitt Romney is Bobby Jindal.  That’s right.  Governor Jindal had 14 percent.  This is more surprising when you consider that Romney is unofficially campaigning for President and Jindal has disavowed any interest in the White House. 

The other surprise is that Cong. Ron Paul came in fourth, right behind former Gov. Sarah Palin.  He had 13% of the straw poll votes.  This shows that Paul has made inroads into the conservative activists who frequent CPAC and related events. 

Next year’s straw poll will be critical:  I have indicated my interest in being a credentialed blogger for CPAC and if selected, I’ll live blog from there.  Can I cast half a vote for Jindal and half for Paul?  In the meantime, read my friend Tom White’s blog!
