Screw the Constitution! I want one-man rule by executive fiat in the form of Benito Giuliani.

LOL.

What great news. I was expecting a report of $1.6 to $2 million. But I really thought he had a chance at more. But four million, maybe even five?

It shows the power of that conservative message of liberty. And that Ron Paul has many friends from diverse groups. I'd like to see how many gun groups are giving. Or online gamblers. Or Silicon Valley internet folk. Or libertarian organizations. His upcoming financial disclosures will make interesting reading, I'm sure.

Washington must be melting down at this news. ("What, one of those pesky consitutional conservatives is still alive? I thought we killed those guys off".) Some big-government compassionate conservatives have probably been tranquilized or are in a coma.

You know, this is how Dean got started in '04. At this rate, it's possible that Ron Paul could enter New Hampshire with $30-$40 million, maybe more. It's not inconceivable.

Most “ideological” grassroots campaigns have very little money. Buchanan’s impressive ‘96 run ran on rhetoric and a shoestring budget.

I can’t recall an ideological campaign with money!

Your post has great insight...Paul’s candidacy is actually CREATING the “big tent” that the Republican Party claimed was their biggest desire. Now that Paul is drawing people in from all points on the political spectrum; the RNC wants to fold the tent. ROTF!
