Maybe the Democrats have all the big, flashy stuff going on right now, courtesy of the Hillary-vs.-Barack runoff. But that doesn't mean local Republicans are just sitting around and watching.

On Monday, in fact, the York County McCain Team will hold its first organizing meeting at 7 p.m. in room 160 of York Suburban High School, 1800 Hollywood Drive, York.

In a press release, local campaign coordinator Dick Evans said the meeting should last about an hour, and people who attend will learn how they can get involved in McCain's 2008 campaign. People from outside York County are welcome to attend, too.

For more information, contact Evans at 683-5512, or pa4mccain@comcast.net.

Call it a hunch, but I've got a funny feeling we're going to hear from these folks again before November.
