Wonderful Weirdos Day: 10 travel weirdos who deserve thanks

Click on a label to read posts from that part of the world.

I decided to "cover" the Iowa caucuses, the DNC, RNC, Rudy's Florida Fiasco, the Ron Paul Rally for America and the Belmont Town Hall meeting as an intrepid female reporter (think Lois Lane), secured press passes, and, at the rather ripe age of 64 traveled all over the U.S. in pursuit of "the truth" about the 2008 presidential campaign. Most the reporters on the case were half my age, but my coverage earned me the distinction of Associated Content Content Producer of the Year 2008, as I slept on an air mattress at a blogger's house in Colorado and walked (literally) miles inside the hallowed halls (and fell down a few hills, as well.) As adventures go, this was a good one and a big one. 6 blogs and 2 real newspapers ran the entries and you can still see them up on www.associatedcontent.com.
