In the Beginning: Texas Residents For Dean Start Election Year
Here Come the Rangers!. 
photo by John Pettitt
Three busloads of Texas Rangers have arrived in Iowa to canvass for Howard Dean, giving steam to the Perfect Storm, the greatest grassroots effort in the history of the Iowa caucuses. The orange hats are everywhere, and it's not too late to join them!
The Texas grassroots are doing awesome work, and you can get involved at Dean for Texas. Speaking of Texas, last night former Governor Ann Richards endorsed Dean, and she will be traveling to New Hampshire campaign with you.
Remember: Iowa is not the end--it's the beginning. We've got the drive and the endurance for a fifty-state campaign, and already hundreds of volunteers are making plans to travel to New Hampshire, Arizona, New Mexico, and South Carolina. Join them! [Blog for America]

Additional Notes: A Blogospheric Cyclone
Bloggerstorm: Live from Iowa. 
Until January 19th, the focus of the political world will be on Iowa. While the mainstream media focuses on polls and the horse race, a bigger story-- the story of the people on the ground-- is getting drowned out. Political Wire quotes Michael Barone on the difficulty of covering presidential politics through the traditional media:
In the 1980s, I believed that you could cover a presidential election from five rooms--the morning meetings of the two campaigns, where the day's message was set, and the afternoon meetings of the three networks, where executives decided what part of that message would make the evening news.... But today you couldn't cover the 2004 fall campaign from 100 rooms. Too much of it will be going on over back fences and on the Internet." Those back fence and Internet stories are the ones we want to hear. We've been following the Governor's People-Powered Road Trip with live webcasts and reports on the ground from Zephyr, Kate and Allison. Those updates will continue, but it's also time to hear from the people who are at the center of the coming democratic storm.
To that end, Blog for America is now providing a roundup of blogs either based in Iowa or whose authors have made the trip to Iowa to cover the race. You can get the latest up-to-the-minute reports at www.blogforamerica.com/bloggerstorm.
Make it a point to check in frequently at Bloggerstorm: Live from Iowa. Tell others about the site. This is your one-stop resource for the in-the-trenches reports coming directly from the political front lines.
And if you're a blogger in Iowa with a blog, journal or diary that has an XML or RSS feed, we want to hear from you. To have your site included, send an email with a link to your blog to blog@deanforamerica.com.
The storm is rising! [Blog for America]

Grid Bloggity Blog Blog
[grid::ritual] Obsessive. The topic for this month's grid blogging is 'ritual', and as I sat and thought about it my mind began to wander. I got a phone call from my brother who needed a lift, so I found my shoes, put them on, right then left, and slipped my phone into my right pocket. I walked downstairs to my car and slipped my wallet into the little cubby-hole beneath the stereo before backing out and driving off. Each of those actions is part of a sort of ritual I have before leaving the house.... [Bloggity Blog Blog]

BloggerStorm: Howard Dean's Grassroots Information Cyclone
BloggerStorm is an aggregation of bloggers campaigning in Iowa. Very cool use of RSS. It's beautiful to see the campaign using an idea that's so ready for prime time. This is what we've been asking them to do, to let us, as technologists, participate in what they're doing. Hat's off to Matt, and the team at Dean for America. This is really fantastic.
