Not after raising $6 million bucks in 24 hours, and $16 million and counting this quarter!!!
"Ron Paul backers stage Boston Tea Party, raise millions" by Michael Levenson/Boston Globe December 17, 2007
I just e-mailed the Globe and asked them if they were finally getting the message, and that we won't stand for another stolen election!
Ron Paul supporters marched through the snow yesterday from the State House to Faneuil Hall, then smashed the one-day fund-raising record for a Republican presidential candidate.
As of 10 last night, the supporters said, they had raked in about $5.2 million, surpassing the record $4.2 million they raised on Nov. 5.
Most of the donations were made over the Internet in what the supporters called a "money bomb" timed to coincide with the 234th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. The last fund-raising blitz, which took in 40,000 donations, was timed to coincide with Guy Fawkes Day, which commemorates a British mercenary who tried unsuccessfully to kill King James I on Nov. 5, 1605.
Rachael McIntosh, a spokeswoman for what was dubbed Boston TeaParty07:
"This basically shows that Ron Paul is a viable candidate. People are so engaged in this campaign because it's coming from the grass roots."
THAT'S RIGHT! I gave, and gave again!
The supporters of the Texas congressman pick anniversaries of such historical events to highlight what they call the "Ron Paul Revolution."
Paul has stood out from the Republican field with his libertarian views and his opposition to the Iraq war. While he has remained in the single digits in polls nationally and in New Hampshire and Iowa, the fund-raising success has separated him from other lower-polling candidates and has enabled him to air TV ads in New Hampshire.
Yeah, because the MSM pollsters never mention his name!
His supporters are unusually enthusiastic. Yesterday, one waved a yellow "Don't Tread on Me" flag on Beacon Street in front of the State House while a dozen others clutched Ron Paul placards in the sleet.
COMMITTED to TRUTH and FREEDOM is more like it, Globe!
McIntosh said 400 supporters later marched to Faneuil Hall, where about 700 people listened to speeches by Rand Paul, the candidate's son; Carla Howell, a libertarian who ran unsuccessfully for Massachusetts governor in 2002; and others.
Supporters also reenacted the dumping of tea in Boston Harbor by tossing banners that read "tyranny" and "no taxation without representation" into boxes that were placed in front of an image of the harbor."
And that IS were we ARE in AmeriKa these days!
Being taxed to pay for wars, and that's all!
Not even the New York Times can ignore him:
"Reinventing the Revolution" by MARC SANTORA
The revolution, it seems, will be televised. Or at least streamed live over the Web.
On the 234th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, the Ron Paul revolution — or re-love-ution, as his supporters call it — drew some of Mr. Paul’s acolytes to a snowy gathering in Boston on Sunday for the real world complement to what was mainly an online fund-raising blitz.
Supporters of Mr. Paul, the Republican congressman from Texas, are hoping to top their fund-raising extravaganza last month, when they took in more than $4 million for the campaign. That effort was pegged to Guy Fawkes Day, which commemorates the attempted assassination of King James I by a British mercenary on Nov. 5, 1605.
WE DID and THEN SOME!!!!
Though Mr. Paul has said he is not sure how to spend the war chest he has already amassed, his supporters rolled out another fund-raising event, this one linked to America’s own revolution.
Right, he doesn't know what to do with it!
Ooooh, am I ever tired of the NYT and their ELITIST DISRESPECT!!!
The event was heavily promoted, and by midnight Sunday more than $6 million in donations had rolled in, according to The Associated Press. The goal for the day was $10 million.
Hundreds of supporters also braved the weather for a rally at Faneuil Hall, where they heard speeches promoting Mr. Paul’s libertarian vision, which calls for, among other things, abolishing the income tax.
For those who could not make it in person, the campaign streamed live video of the event, which included a speech by the candidate’s son, Dr. Rand Paul."
Well, THAT'S SOMETHING done with the MONEY, huh?
CONNECTING with the PEOPLE!
Maybe you could LEARN SOMETHING, Times!!!!!!
And check out these advertising numbers!
Of course, you can't find the chart or story on the NYT website!
Now remember, the MSM can't have it both ways!
They can't say money doesn't matter, then say advertising doesn't matter!
EITHER WAYM, the MSM HAS TO TELL THE TRUTH about RON PAUL, readers!
Either money works (then Ron wins), or MSM exposure doesn't matter much (Ron wins again).
The AmeriKan MSM has become TRAPPED in its OWN LIES!!!!
"Mitt Romney, the Republican presidential candidate, ran campaign advertisements on television more frequently than any other candidate through mid-November, according to the television tracking company Nielsen. He ran his first TV advertisements in February and mounted the costliest early advertising push in a presidential campaign. His rivals Rudolph (too much like Adolph, isn't it, readers?) W. Giuliani and Mike Huckabee began running television advertisements in November. The leading Democrats have stepped up their TV campaigns since October, running nearly as many advertisements as Mr. Romney."
Chart: Ads run from January to mid-November (Nov. 11 -18 for radio):
#1. Mitt Romney -- TV: 17, 173 ads run ; Radio: 676 ads run
#2. Barack Obama -- TV: 10, 217 ; Radio: 94

Ummm, WHERE is the "SURGING WONDER" BUCKAHEE, and HOW could he have got that?
Through a FRIENDLY and LYING MSM, readers?
And LOOK at WHO RON PAUL is BESTING in ADVERTISING!!!?!?!
Here's the bullshit politics the Times shovels at you today, readers!
See if you can detect the name Ron Paul in the article!
"In Chaotic Race, Huckabee Rising" by MICHAEL COOPER
Rudolph W. Giuliani, a former mayor of New York, scaled back his advertising in New Hampshire to concentrate his resources for later states.
Gonna be out of the game before it begins, Rudy!
Mike Huckabee’s rise also comes at a delicate time for Giuliani, who has been slipping in national polls and who failed to lift his standing in New Hampshire with a heavy advertising campaign.
Rudy's campaign going down the tubes because NO ONE LIKES HIM!
Good!
Mr. Huckabee’s campaign showed the strains of its own success. Its e-mail service was down for 24 hours, forcing it to rely on old-fashioned phone calls.
And this guy is the new front-runner? Pfffffftttt!
The Giuliani campaign professes delight at Mr. Huckabee’s rapid rise, but it could ultimately cost Mr. Giuliani, whose drop in national polls came after news accounts questioned his business dealings and his personal life. Now Mr. Huckabee is essentially tied with Mr. Giuliani in several national polls, which could undermine one of the Giuliani campaign’s central arguments: that he is the strongest Republican candidate nationwide.
Bye, Rudy!
Giuliani’s decisions not to focus on Iowa and to scale back his efforts in New Hampshire pose other risks. He could have to wait nearly a month for his first victory, time in which another candidate might gain momentum. More immediately, he risks falling off the media radar screen as news organizations concentrate on the race in Iowa.
I doubt it!
The MSM seems to give Rudy PLENTY of COVERAGE!
More than is warranted, I'd say!
The McCain campaign is also trying to seize on Mr. Romney’s troubles in Iowa. It believes that a defeat there for Mr. Romney would put Mr. McCain in a position to pull off an upset in their must-win state, New Hampshire.
Smelling a rig-job set-up, aren't you, reader? So am I!
Huckabee, in his latest campaign swing through New Hampshire, sounded almost like John Edwards, a Democrat running for president, when he decried what he called “fat cat” chief executive officers and their outsize paychecks.
Oooooh, THIS is the CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVES CHOICE?!
The REPUBLICAN JOHN EDWARDS?!
Oh, man , does the MSM have you Christians eating bowls of shit!!!!
Unless you are truly for Ron Paul, as you should be!
In Iowa last week, Mr. Romney regularly tore into Mr. Huckabee’s record, sometimes bringing it up directly with audiences in town hall forums and other times waiting to do it with reporters afterward.
And after Mr. Huckabee’s attack on the Bush administration’s foreign policy, describing an “arrogant bunker mentality” in an essay in Foreign Affairs magazine article, he questioned Mr. Huckabee’s Republicanism.
Oh, Mitt is into QUESTIONING ALLEGIANCES, huh?
Well, Sig Heil, Mormon!!!
You'll never be president of this country!
Mr. Romney said Sunday on the NBC program “Meet the Press.”:
“That’s an insult to the president, and Mike Huckabee should apologize to the president.”
FUCK THAT!!
I'll NEVER APOLOGIZE to that LYING, LAW-BREAKING, MASS-MURDERING PIECE of FILTH!!
Yup, poll numbers lower than dirt, but we all gotta suck Anti-Christ cock!
Well, NOT THIS AMERICAN!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. Huckabee has been ramping up his organization in Iowa, but it still remains far behind Mr. Romney’s. The campaign recently doubled the office space at its headquarters in downtown Des Moines; it now has 17 paid employees in Iowa, up from 3 over the summer. The campaign is broadcasting commercials in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina and is preparing its first mailing in Iowa.
But the campaign remains bare bones in many ways. It has not had the money to do any polling. The campaign predicts that it will have precinct captains in the major caucus precincts, but not in all of them.
Buckahee ain't ought to be winning anywhere!
Or else, RON PAUL has a GREAT SHOT, doesn't he?
Also in the mix is Mr. Thompson, whose late entrance in the campaign failed to resonate with the conservative voters who are now flocking to Mr. Huckabee. Mr. Thompson sees Iowa as his best chance to get back in the game. So his campaign is moving to Iowa, where it plans two bus tours — starting Monday — that total some 16 days on the road before and after Christmas.
Horse is outta the barn, Freddy, and you never took!
Maybe the LAZINESS has something to do with it!
But the greatest uncertainty lies in whether Mr. Huckabee can seriously compete beyond Iowa. His trip to New Hampshire over the weekend put that to the test. And while sizable crowds turned out, many seemed to have been drawn more by the star power of the actor Chuck Norris.
I'm tired of the MSM promoting celebrities over the AMERICAN VOTER!!!
WE DECIDE, shitters, NOT YOU!
The Giuliani campaign believes that Mr. Huckabee’s momentum will fade. But its decision to scale back advertising in New Hampshire is telling. From Nov. 10 through Dec. 9, the Giuliani campaign spent $1.7 million on commercials in New Hampshire, compared with $1.3 million by Mr. Romney and $1.2 million by Mr. McCain, according to the Campaign Media Analysis Group, which estimates advertising expenditures.
And it bought him NOTHING, huh?
Although Mr. Giuliani will cut back on advertising in New Hampshire, he is not writing off the state; he plans to campaign there Monday."
Yup, these guys like Rudy and Buck have been doing nothing but squat, and somehow Ron Paul isn't mentioned here!
Pfffffttt!
Hey, it is the New York Times -- AmeriKa's LEAST CREDIBLE "NEWS"PAPER!!!!
