crumpled up newspaper should absorb some moisture, but the best thing i ever bought was a therm-ic boot dryer. small portable and i always have dry boots

Take the liner out of the shell forsure and if you have some of those big packets of silica gel laying around; the ones you get from computers and TV's toss them in there for a while.

Take the liners out, and place them in front of a fan overnight.

Silica beads inside pantyhoes (tights), dropped down into the boots. I made some dryers like that this winter, they work well and cost about $15. I'll make a how-to post sometime.
