I had forgotten it was Guy Fawkes day - thanks for the heads up! How sadly fitting for Mr. Paul. He has a surprising number of supporters around here, on both sides.

If I see an illegally placed campaign sign in town, it’s always a Ron Paul sign. You see them in medians everywhere.

Me, too. But around here, I see them at homes, businesses and on vehicles, too.

lol, well you’ll appreciate this one:

‘Every 5k raised take a drink..’

I wish this fundraiser was on a fri or sat night and i would join them for an hour or two...

btw, looks like we both underestimated the total this day would raise, LOL

too rude

LOL @ you calling other people rude. Too funny. You're one of the biggest trolls on all these candidate threads. I was just on a Romney thread and saw you posting nasty remarks there too.

‘Every 5k raised take a drink..’

Naw. The State would make too much off alcohol taxes. We shouldn't feed the Beast.

Pinging any party mentioned in a post is a fundamental rule of courtesy here. Entry level stuff. Omitting that ping is almost always a function of cowardice or rudeness.

Love the fact that Ron is hated by GOP Leadership. Telling.

They hated Tom Coburn too. It's gotten to the point where I won't support a candidate if the GOP leadership likes them.

Go Ron!

I may have to adopt your thinking when supporting a candidate from now on. Consider the fact that the GOP did NOT support RP in his congressional races.

If/when RP wins or places well these first few primaries, expect the GOP to go after him like never before.

The club for growth challenges a lot of the worst RINOs in the primaries and open seats, throws some of the bums out, pretty good organization:

Too cowardly to ping me, or too rude?

If I had a nickel for every time you've talked about me or referred to me w/o pinging me...

[roofgoat]

thanks for the link. Sad, but expected.

[Petronski]

You wouldn’t be a nickel ahead.

[Alex Murphy]

You wouldn’t be a nickel ahead.

Are you broke, or just cheap?

[rineaux]

Thanks.

Looks like RP is about to hit the 3 million mark.

[Petronski]

False dichotomy.

[rineaux]

It’s over 3 million!!

[George W. Bush]

Go Ron!

He's going all right! You might be interested in this:

total raised today:	$2,974,488
current values (online + offline)
total at start of day:	$3,115,107
total at last update:	$6,089,595

I also read that the campaign put in over $300,000 in those "offline" entries which were checks they received over this weekend because some folks don't like using credit cards on the internet. But they mailed checks to arrive in time for this moneybomb and they're still going to be counted in today's total. That was a nice touch by the campaign to get that done.

Just in the time it took to create that table, it went to $6,125,000. Can't keep up with it! Could Dr. Paul make it to $7 million today? Almost unthinkable. The graphs show we're holding currently at $180,000 p/hour.

I have to give credit to EEE and travis. They're great RP supporters.

We're going to bury Huckabee and McCain at this rate. Well, we probably already have.

Gee, I wonder what they're all discussing at the other campaign headquarters tonight? LOL.

LOL too.

What they will be saying, but, but the polls say we are ahead, we’re the choice. Yeah, maybe you are ahead in the polls, but the money is not there like it is for RP. McCain better call mom and get her to send him an allowance, before she donates it to RP.
