The stay in the Baltimore area was part of an effort to expose the Blimp to the media and people in the heavily populated North East corridor. Baltimore was the furthest point the Blimp could reasonably travel in one day. The next stop was to be New York and along the corridor. The plan was to get as much media exposure as possible from this heavily MSM area. Then, if conditions allowed, make a flight to New Hampshire in hopes of helping the efforts of the folks up north.

Weather and equipment maintenance have made traveling any further north unviable. We are working to gain support for Ron Paul in the Republican primaries. Whether a state is democratic or republican does not matter at this stage. We need to win Republican support in those areas and in every other state to win the Republican nomination. It would be nice if all the early primaries where all together and had blue sunny skies. This is not the case and we are trying to get as much media exposure as possible to promote the Ron Paul message.

The plan now is to take The Ron Paul Blimp message south to warmer climes. We have early primaries in South Carolina and Florida and we would like to have the Blimp be a presence in those areas. Since Atlanta is the home of CNN and The Weather Channel, and in the proximity of a potential route to Florida, an appearance there is also being considered.
