Ron Paul said today his presidential campaign raised nearly $20 million in the last three months of 2007 from 130,000 donors.

Ron Paul brought in nearly $5.3 million that quarter.

Paul's campaign said that more than 107,000 donors were new and the average donation was about $90. More than half of the total came from two 24-hour online fund-raising events organized by supporters -- one on Nov. 5, and the second centered in Boston on Dec. 16.

So all 130,000 nationwide that would vote for this certified nut case has given money to him. Plus, those in the Marxist Dimocrat party that are giving to him to get him to win. This fool is NO republican and certainly NO conservative.

[mnehring]

Stormfront is really coming through for him.

48 hours till the proof in the pudding.

[digger48]

I don’t particularly care for nuts in my pudding

[Free Vulcan]

Paul supporters are like oompa-loompas on meth.

[MinorityRepublican]

I would vote for Ron Paul if he was a bit more pragmatic about our foreign policy.

If this was 1996, I would probably vote for him.

[eyedigress]

I resent his fact that he blames us for 911.

“Stormfront is really coming through for him.”

That guy supported Reagan and Bush too. Nobody expected the Gipper to get elected either.

Sorry that Paul isn’t RINO enough for you.

code pink and George soros are 19,000,000 dollars poorer also. Coincidence hmmmmmm

[Zuben Elgenubi]

FReepers, say what you want but $20MM in a fiscal quarter is a lot of money. Must be getting the “insane uncle” vote from around the nation.

[rdl6989]

48 hours until he is knocked out of the race.

[KC_Conspirator]

Wow, that sure is alot of Soros money.

[glorgau]

The real message is that so many people looking at all the choice, choose to put their money on somebody that might actually change things and not just give “change” lip service.

[gusopol3]

anti-war money for an anti-war guy

[Bastiat_Fan]

Yeah, I can’t wait til I get my refund check from Soros. You know we get 25% on top of what we donated back. It’s a pretty sweet deal.

Come off it there bud, you just sound stupid with comments like that.

“Sorry that Paul isn’t RINO enough for you.”

That’s pretty ironic...

What do you think RINO stands for?

Talk about Republican in name only... Can you say Libertarian? They have their own party he can run in without slapping the Republican label on him.

I got my problems with RP on the foreign policy side so he’s not my guy. That said, you are very correct in saying that we’ve got too many RINOs running at this time - McCain, Guiliani and Romney to name them. Huck, well he’s a populist, not a Republican (in spite of his party registration).

The smear job by the pro-Israel wing of the GOP (aided and abetted by the M$M) is really all about the benjamins. RP wants to end all foreign aid, and that bothers those in the party (and out) who feel that we should be continuing to give Israel money. The guilt by association tactic has been pretty successful so far - to those who aren’t really paying attention. The hypocrisy is pretty blatant since no other candidates are held to the same standard.

Just a drop in the bucket for George Soros and the moveon gang. If he had any true Republican support he be be over 2% of Republican backing. The other support comes from the far left blame America first anti-Americans.
