Thanks for the post jodarr Oct 2012 #4
Did Lampson support Hillary in 2008? TX seems an odd place to appear right now, otherwise. Mayberry Machiavelli Oct 2012 #3
Lampson is trying to take Ron Paul's old seat (Paul is retiring) - TBF Oct 2012 #5

but I wanted to post it so Houston/Beaumont folks would see and think about going over. Beaumont is only 90 minutes from Houston so college students or empty nesters may be able to make the trip. Would love to see Bill get a warm welcome!

I had not heard of him coming. I would have to leave work early but I think it would be well worth it.
I live around the Baytown area so it's about an hour drive. Sent the message out to like minded friends in the area.
