Mom’s credit card is maxed out.
I think Paulistinians are far more obnoxious, bombastic and louder than were Deaniacs. In fact, many of them are the same people.
Never!?
Also, Democrat plants don't contribute like authentic supporters.
And I don't know that Libertarians believe in that sort of thing...why would they be ruining our party otherwise?
I think you’ve stepped on your own lead here.
The real story is that some idiots actually GAVE $2.63M to RonPaul! Who in their right mind would do it at this point? I mean, is Dennis Kucinich getting $2.63M???
The real story is who the latest donors are and which party they have come from. Yep, I’m as suspicious as I am curious. I’ve been burned before.
Trouble in paradise.
I’m certainly no campaign expert, but IIRC Paul raised $5M in Q3. If he then raised over $2.5m in Q4, doesn’t that indicate he’s up more than 50% in donations per unit time (in other words, if his fundraising stays constant through Nov. and Dec., he will have raised more than 50% more in Q4 than he did in Q3)?
That strikes me as quite a lot of growth, even if it’s not as much as some wanted (whose number was the $4M?). It’s hard to imagine any candidate being disappointed with a 50% increase in donation rate.
There do seem to be a lot of similarities between Paul’s campaign and Dean’s 2004 campaign, but I have no idea what Dean’s fundraising was like. I think fundraising numbers are probably the most accurate assessment of candidate support as they are public (thus difficult and illegal to fudge) and require supporters to put their money where their mouths are, literally.
So money can come out of those computer programs that stuff the polls and generate spam?
I guess some of his backers just don’t have the mullah!
The fundraising isn’t exponential, it looks like it’s going in the opposite direction. There’s only so many truthers and teenagers with access to mom’s credit card out there.
I guess we’ll see in November, but I think the higher fundraising is just the younger, normally unorganized Libertarians trying to flex their muscle behind a Ron Paul, because they know someone from their party is never going to win.
Well lets see...
Halo 3 came out...
The are cutting back hours at Starbucks...
The pot crop was a bit lean so supply and demand has kicked in...
Yup not a lot left for Ron Paul...
Looks like he’s going to need to keep every last cent of that Nazi cash donation after all. ;)
And if he gets his money bomb on Guy Fawkes Day, to commemorate the loss of the twin towers on 9/11 to a government/neocon/Bilderbery/Mason/whatever conspiracy, what does that say?
Anyone realize how importaint it is that Ron go third party to help Hillary? Bubba won with only 42% of the vote, thanks to Perot. And Hildabeast has 50% saying they WILL NOT vote for her no matter what. Someone will show up to Ron Paul’s aid ($$$) eventually so he can go third party.
Wack job dream ticket!!!
Time to eat crow. Today was the biggest one-day fundraising in political history. Ron Paul has raised over HALF of his $12 million 4Q goal within 5 weeks, and with just under two months remaining, there are several other money bombs planned. It is quite possible to see Paul end up with $15-$20 million for the quarter.
