Using their list, Dean raised over $800,000 in just over 24 hours. To put that in context, it will take nearly 2 weeks for the FReepathon to garner just $60,000. See, it's no joke. Lets think about that. Based on their claim of 1.5 million members either each person gave two bucks or a few people gave a lot. I tend to think they used the trick of coordinating mass donations among big wigs in 24 hours to create hype. That is all. I suspect you are looking at something closer to 8000 donators averaging $100. There is a big difference between 8000 and 1.5 million. Plus, how many of those whogave $100 will be giving more?

I don't think it matters one wit either way. I've been eyeing these people for some time and I think they are a worry. It's very early in the primary and this bodes well for the internet faction of the Democrats. Folks like you will continue to insist that it all means nothing but you soon may be wishing you hadn't.

Liberals long for their own Rush. Liberals are making a crusade out of bashing FOXNews, talk radio, and the newly grown conservative media. They got their panties in a collective wad, so now we got Michael Moore, Al Gore, and the DNC going to war against the right, or trying to.
Their latest salvo: Last night I caught Paula Zahn interviewing aging actress Kathleen Turner. (War of the Roses, Romancing the Stone, Body Heat, etc.) Self identified liberal, Ms. Turner will soon have her own talk radio show on PBS. But oh no, never would she try to sell a point of view. Never. She'll have guests on, to answer questions from listeners.
This wouldn't have interested me if I hadn't listened to Drudge on Sunday night interview 2 MIT professors with a new website to expose hypocrisy (and other stuff), on elected officials. I'm sure I'm not the only one to question whether MIT professors would have come up with such a brilliant idea when high and mighty elected officials were democrats.
We can tout FreeRepublic.com, (and Drudge mentioned us on his Sunday show), but we need to stay focused. The messenger isn't nearly as important as the message.

Regarding that Jim R. chart comparing "MoveOn" to FR:
Note that the ordinates are on a log scale;
How much more impressive would it be if it were a linear scale?

We need some free publicity to get more visibility.
Actually, the free publicity route is more effective than an advertising campaign.
Every time there are plans to FReep an event, a series of press releases should be sent to all area major news outlets -- announcing the upcoming event, just prior to the event, and then a news summary about the event. (The "news summary" press releases are especially effective if you include photos; think of such publicity efforts as being your own wire service -- like AP, Reuters, etc. Some outlets will run such articles "as is" and others will hone them.) Include quotes in the releases and contact phone numbers. Sometimes newspapers run them as is; other times reporters use the contact numbers to do follow-up to hone the articles that run. Extremely liberal newspapers may ignore such publicity attempts at first, but once other outlets begin covering such events, they may get on the bandwagon, too.
Well-written letters to the editor can work well, too.
Even if everybody on FR has more money than time, paid ads alone are seldom as effective.

Why do we need to "market" FR through the obsolete paper media?
Why not just write an enraged letter to the editor every so often (and how hard is that?) and mention FR in the letter?

I sent Jim Rob a note on Sunday night saying that the best statement this site could make is to have a one day internet fund raiser for GWB. I think FR would smash the 800k that the people of meetup.com raised for Dean. Not only that, the amount which we could raise on the site would generate free advertising via media coverage, and would draw more conservatives into the fold.
Granted, it would need a good 90-100 day head start and advertise it on the site. I think if you did this the entire community would be ready to donate on that date, and FR would smash all previous online fund raising records.
Just a thought as we get closer to 2004!

saying they needed to find a liberal answer to me, the left has decided that they don't need talk radio because they "own" the InternetNo they don't. First, to use the internet you have to be able to read and comprehend.
Second, it's hard to drum up that emotional response that gets the liberals crying "The sky is falling!".
Third, how can people who can't afford food, housing, medical care, and clothing afford internet access?
No. We own the net.

We need a .pdf document of a print ad on the homepage of FR...something we can forward to friends on email, or print and place the ad ourselves....
