According to official campaign fund raising filings posted at www.opensecrets.org, Ron Paul’s top contributor is well known internet giant Google...with Al Gore on the board of directors...

(snip)

Among Ron Paul’s top donor zip codes are of course parts of Texas, but also heavily liberal districts in Chicago (60614), San Francisco (94117), more than 80% of which supports Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer, and Los Angeles – Long Beach, which is his second largest donor area after Dallas. What we have here is a candidate trying to win the Republican nomination by raising money from liberals across the political aisle.

This is why his fund-raising is not translating to improved poll positions

His donors are not Republicans. So no matter how much money he raises, it is not translating into Republican support in the polls. He remains at or below 5% support in every national Republican poll, no matter how much money he raises.

I've been saying this on this board for two months now, much to the derision of the Pauline Apostles and others. I'm glad that someone else is finally catching on...

Did you support Bush in his 2000 and 2004 election campaign?
Because Bush’s major donors came from the same zip codes as those donors that are now derided by geographic bigotry by this author.

I gave you the links above.

This article is absolute junk.

Video footage of Ron Paul supporters, accosting passersby and loudly declaring that "9/11 was an inside job!"

(... but these are good, sane conservatives making up his support base, mind you...) ;)

Your assertions are proving to be correct. Good Job.
