So, have we bombarded the MSM with news of the Q3 military contributions for Ron?

[Starks]

It would make for an amazing story...

"Ron Paul gathers most military donations... AGAIN!"

Ron Paul Again Leads in Military Contributions

Once again, Ron Paul has outraised all candidates in the Republican primary race in donations from current and former members of the military. Ron Paul's controversial message of non-interventionism may not be popular with the rest of the Republican field, but it seems clear that it is resonating with the troops that are potentially put into harm's way by American foreign policy. Ron Paul voted against the Iraq War from the outset, and remains a strong advocate for a humble foreign policy, and a return to the Republican policies of non-interventionism and 'no nation building'.

Totals:
Ron Paul $40466.72
John McCain $23058.00
Fred Thompson $16748.00
Mitt Romney $8180.00
Rudy Giuliani $6050.00

Well, if you're the only one that hit them, won't that be ineffective?

What, you want the campaign to do it? Better for the campaign to stay mum and let the pundits figure it out (with our help, of course ;) )

Shouldn't we all slam the MSM with the info?

Oh, I see. Well, I don't know, because if we all slam the same addresses repeatedly they'll kill the addresses. I already found dozens of dead addresses on our contact list that has several hundred contacts.

Yes.

[USPatriot36]

We need the money from the Military for Democrats also. How does he do versus Hillary and Obama? Also what employers are the top 5 employers total year to date? I believe Dr. Pauls top 3 contributors are Army, Air Force and Navy while the other candidates all have Wall Street investment houses for their top 3.

Some of those numbers are wrong. NASA is not military. Nor is: U.S. NAVY VETERAN'S ASSOCIATION 2,300.00

A private organization run by mostly civilians is not military -$2300 for Giuliani
