Ron Paul Supporters “Spam” Campaign with $500,000 in 3 days
With a goal of raising $500,000 in the last six days of the quarter, the “Paulites” stepped up to the challenge and reached the goal in just 72 hours. With three days to spare, the goal was doubled to one-million dollars, and should be easily reached before the deadline.
So what did Congressman Paul have to say about the results? “Frankly, I’m floored!”
What remains to be seen is how floored the mainstream media will be, as well as his Republican Party opponents, when the third quarter campaign totals are announced in the upcoming weeks. With funds currently coming in at a rate of over $10,000 per hour, whatever the total is, the results will be hard to ignore.
i’m keeping track and for the last three hours, it’s coming in at about $25,000-$30,000 per hour.
i’m not done giving and i know others aren’t either.

I already gave 150 this month. If I give anymore, my wife will have a conniption, stroke, and heart attack all at once. I’m done with donation for this month but not done for the Columbus Ron Paul TV advertisement. I said I’ll pay my fair share so whatever it takes to reach that goal, I’ll step up to the plate with Joe. =)

I like seeing my name flash on the screen so yea, you bet I’m giving some more. My wife can scream at me when the credit card bill shows up. By then I’ll have a nice speech about how much of our purchasing power has been stolen from our money by the government. I’ll tell what a great opportunity to elect a man President who will restore confidence in our system of laws and restore the limited ideas placed in the Constitution by those brillant men back in 1787. We could very well lose it all with a Guilliani, or Romney and lose not only more of what is left of our money’s value, but lose our very own freedom. We may lose our homes our kids in another unconstitutional war. What good is money if we can’t use it to help win back the freedom that weAmericans are supposed to stand for? Money won’t mean a thing in a police state. Your retirement and pension will have been frittered away by an out of control spending machine called the Federal government. Now is the time to gaher up all that loose change and put it where it will do the most good. Skip the church donation this Sunday, skip the trip to the movies, Don’t go to that ball game, to that bar. You know you can sacrifice in other areas. I know I can find some loose money if I try. Do you think this speech will work with my wife. Maybe not, she’s a Hillary supporter.

I feel more like I’m investing than donating in all honesty. Seriously, even if my wife and I max at $4600, we’ll get complete return on investment the first year the personal income tax goes away. With incentives like that, its not really hard to see why he is raising money so quickly and honestly.

That lone Ron Paul spammer is truly amazing. First, he spams. Then, he creates large crowds through computer trickery. Now, he’s a millionaire!
