Here is most of the audio for the 2012 Cache County Utah GOP Convention held at Mt. Logan Middle School in Logan, UT on 4-11-2012 from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM. I neglected to “start the tape” for the county candidates, but I got the rest. I’ve broken the audio up into two files. Here is a list of the candidates and their corresponding time slots on each audio portion.

Almost every candidate felt the need to relate their connection to Cache Valley. My vote for the funniest pander of the night goes to Lane Ronnow (listen to it on Part 2 0:58):

You know, everyone tries to tie themselves to where ever we are speaking, and I want you to know that, uh, in my misspent youth when I was a television news reporter I dated the dairy princess from Cache County.

Also, don’t miss Orrin Hatch’s joke at 20:51. LANGUAGE WARNING!!! 😉

• Have anyone ever seen a disk area over 5 on HRT2? #
• Instead of demanding 1k/month in contraception from my insurance co., how about I don't use it, and they comp. me my premium? #
• If I testified that I need $1k/mo in alcohol, would advertisers pull from a radio host that called me a lush? or wouldn't it just be truth. #
• Okay, it was $1k/yr. Still, if I testified that I want .gov to mandate my ins. pay $1k/yr in running shoes, wouldn't Rush call me a jogger? #
