...Yes, that’s actually Ron Paul’s website asking you to donate to his campaign. It appears someone has bought the rickperry.com domain name and set up a redirect to ronpaul2012.com.

If you’re looking for information on how to donate to Rick Perry’s presidential campaign you’d want to go to rickperry.org.

.....Also, a warning to Newt Gingrich’s campaign: newtgingrich.com is currently for sale. His campaign, located at newt.org, might want to look into that.

In Campaign 2012, Web sites are the new real estate....Perry’s opponents and other parties are buying up domains about Perry. In most cases, the addresses have not been put to use and lead to empty Web pages.

In several instances, anti-Perry domains were bought on the same dates that the Romney or Obama campaigns reported making transactions at GoDaddy.com, according to an analysis of online domain-registration records.

On Aug. 15, two days after Perry launched his campaign, Obama’s campaign spent $3,958 at Go­Daddy.com. At least 70 domains containing Perry’s name were bought on the same date."....

ONe of the primary objectionable things about Ron Paul, after you get past his naive, dangerous take on foreign policy and his willingness to tolerate support from anti-semites and groups like Stormfront, is the quality of his supporters.

I have never encountered a nastier, more spiteful, less honest, more willing to engage in dirty tactics group of people. Not only do they display a level of maturity one routinely encounters in a high schooler, but they appear to be gleeful in their use of abusive, hateful tactics and language.

Any man who not only tolerates, but apparently embraces that sort of following is not the sort of man I would ever consider supporting.

I keep hearing that.

I also understand that much of Ron Paul’s support comes from younger voters/college students.

The supporters really make you want to take it from ‘meh’ about him to actually working to oppose him.

Perhaps they let it lapse.

Looks like they’re squatting in hopes of making a killing.

Looks dormant.

So most likely, someone other than Gingrich is holding it — right?
