'Money bomb' blows up Ron Paul's coffers (http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0211/49956.html)

The revolution is alive and well.

Ron Paul raised more than $700,000 for his PAC in 24 hours during a President's Day money bomb.
...

LibertyPAC (http://www.libertypac.com/) promoted the money bomb with a web video posted on Paul's Facebook page which leads supporters to believe the Texas congressman is leaning toward another run for president.

"If we show him enough support, he will announce his official candidacy for 2012," reads the text that appears halfway through the two-minute video.

Am I the only one who thinks there was nearly zero campaigning/promotion for the moneybomb?

The only place I heard about it was on here.

Well think Paul's money bombs raised maybe 11-12 million or so of his 35-36 million total last campaign.

Basically 2/3 of his fundraising was non-money bomb so even without them, he was still raising a good amount of cash.
