Paul Flush With Cash, Has Hopes for N.H.
The Associated Press ^ | Nov 7, 2007 | NORMA LOVE

Posted on 11/07/2007 1:37:18 PM PST by Baladas

Pumped up by a record day of online fundraising, Republican presidential contender Ron Paul said Wednesday he hopes to do well in a New Hampshire campaign in which he's emerging as a potential spoiler or more.

In an Associated Press interview, he said people startled by the $4.3 million take from his volunteer-led fundraising blitz Monday might be surprised on Election Day as well.

"They said if the candidate doesn't call and pander to special interests you can't raise enough money. But here, we found out the campaign is very spontaneous and volunteers are coming," he said.

"So, I would say a campaign like ours would surprise others."

Soros is going to pump this clown so full of cash, it’s going to be impossible for him to drop out after the primary is decided.

Meet the new Ross Perot... Same as the old Ross Perot.

The fact is by election day next year, Paul and Duncan Hunter will have been long forgotten.

Hillary is backing his play. Period. Nickels and dimes come in from Paul supporters. Millions come from Hillary supporters in sheep’s clothing. The goal is not that he wins; the goal is that he runs 3rd party. Period. That is her only chance; to her, it is worth any and all expenditure. This will come out, but with typical Clinton deniability.

“He said if he’s elected, U.S. troops wouldn’t come home in a day but could be withdrawn in two to three months”

Is Paul so dumb he doesn’t know it would take at least 10 months to complete an immediate withdrawal, or is he just lying for effect?

Take your pick.

Through support of an anti-gun, pro-abortion, pro-illegal, pro-gay-marriage ex-Democrat in Guiliani, you mean?

Guess Stormfront’s fundraising efforts have been a huge success.

I hope ole’ Whackjob runs as a Libertarian third party candidate. He’ll drain more Democratic votes than Republican votes.

“Pat Buchanan won NH before....”

Which shows precisely how insignificant NH has become.

Well, he claimed earlier that he wouldn’t, but that shouldn’t mean much. If he does run third party, which I doubt, he’ll get little support from the GOP base after milking off of our debates.

If you can find any evidence that Soros is donating to the Paul campaign, please feel free to post it. Otherwise, STFU.

You must know nothing about Soros. He is a socialist, not a libertarian.
