View Full Version : June 28 money bomb?

The end of this quarter is June 30. Mitt Romney just raised over 10 million dollars in a single day! He wants to be the money leader after the quarterly filing on 30 June. I say we combine a moneybomb with an official campaign led phone banking effort in order to beat Romney! I think perhaps June 27th or 28th to not allow the Romney machine time to respond prior to the 30 June deadline.

The "In It to Win It" moneybomb would infuse the campaign with the cash necessary to win in Ames.

The other idea I had for the timing would be Wednesday, the 15th of June. It would be right after the 13 June debate, plus it would be payday for a lot of people.

Thoughts?

There are already two money bombs set up. Setting up more would detract from these ones.

www.legalizegoldandsilver.com - June 5.
MODERATOR NOTE: This money bomb site is organized by a FOR PROFIT group. While there may or may not be a direct profit from the donations the e-mail addresses collected by the group have, in the past, been used in other for profit ventures. Some examples from 2009/2010 revenue included $4,050 from the Peter Schiff campaign, $24,400 from the Rand Paul campaign and $400 from the Adam Kokesh campaign.

I get that, but perhaps we could combine the two of those and change the timing? Also, I don't feel comfortable about the legalizegoldandsilver one...(No offense, Trevor) I have heard it is for-profit (or at least to grow that companies mailing list or something) and seems focused on one narrow issue. I just don't see it being that big...and the Ready, Ames, Fire one seems great, but I think the timing is off

I think we need to make this nomination between Romney and Paul...ask people who they would prefer to be President: : health care mandating, big government, flip-flopping Mitt Romney, or Ron Paul. If people realize that those are the only two choices, we can win.

I completely agree with this. We need to frame this primary as Romneycare vs. Ron Paul Freedom

I am ready to donate big along with a handful of others who haven't donated yet sometime in June, or the next moneybomb.. June 5th or whichever we agree on

Except that when you use a bunch of adjectives for one candidate, and none for the other, it's pretty obvious what you're doing.

Can we get off the Money Bomb thing a little? Romney does not have that money in his coffers, but look at all the people on this site who are convinced he does. What does that mean the regular voter thinks? What does it say to GOP primary types? Moreover, what does it do to "paltry" totals of one or two million that Paul could muster?

Please consider thinking of a different approach, rather than panicking and rushing back to the same old model.

Melissa, that's what I am saying. Combine the two approaches (money bomb and phone banking).
The polls in Iowa, New Hampshire, Arizona, etc show Romney leading, but they also show people say they will not vote for someone who supports an individual mandate.

I like the 28th, it is my birthday and so it would be a great present to stick it to Romney. If we go with the debate thing though, lets do it prior to the 15th so to give Ron some fauter for the debate.

Just another thought, how about after we raise the money, lets convert it to its preinflation value for the American people sot to show them what is happening to our dollar.

This is getting out of control. These moneybombs are waaay too close together. We need to rein this in quick, or Trevor Lyman is going to go bomb crazy!

Agree, we need one that eclipses our record setting money bomb from 08
