Unbelievable

[anewvoice]

Just received e-mail - 8 MILLION is in REACH!!??!!


The 3rd quarter fundraising deadline is just hours away!

The level of support has been so unbelievable that my campaign has raised $1,235,209 in this End of Quarter Push.

In fact, the money just poured in online and in the mail over the last 72 hours, faster than we could count it. This has pushed us far beyond the $5 million we first quoted.

The enthusiasm this campaign is now generating is amazing, especially among first-time donors and new Ron Paul supporters.

And now, $8 million raised for this quarter is within reach!

If you have already contributed to my End of Quarter Push, I thank you, and ask that you dig deep one last time to help push us past the $8 million mark.

If you have not yet contributed, now is your best opportunity to fire a shot across the bow of a political and media establishment that tries to pretend my campaign doesn't exist.

So please, click here to make your most generous contribution and force everyone across the country to sit up and take notice of the strength of my campaign.



Not only will your contribution help guarantee I have strong fundraising numbers, but it'll also allow my campaign to launch a hard-hitting $2.5 million voter contact blitz.

My campaign is preparing to unleash a series of hard-hitting TV and internet ads, as well as a massive phone outreach and targeted voter mail program over the next 30 days.

And I'm counting on your support to help make it happen.

Click here to make your most generous contribution you can afford and help my campaign post the strongest possible 3rd quarter fundraising.

I thank you for you all that you do in the name of Liberty.


For Liberty,

[bluesc]

Wow! I hope that wasn't a typo. The campaign have done a good job playing the total down.

It's very important to raise as much as possible now. On TV, $8,000,000 will look a lot better than $7,973,785.

[beardedlinen]

Yes!

[kill the banks]

pray that's correct

[RileyE104]

This is so awesome..

[IndianaPolitico]

WOW! Donate away! Keep on spreading the word on facebook!

P.S. The deadline for my campaign to raise funds for the third quarter is midnight tonight.

So there's still time for you to help make this my strongest showing yet by making your most generous contribution IMMEDIATELY.

Together, you and I can Restore America Now!

[beardedlinen]

I hope that figure is correct 'cause I just plastered it all over FaceBook.

[AdamT]

Wow, I thought they were only at $5 mil?

[trey4sports]

<<<------------- is excited.

p.s. betcha they are figuring in Ron's leftover cong. $$

[kill the banks]

I got one too

[IterTemporis]

I am very happy for the campaign. This will look resplendent.

Edit: Hehe.. I cannot stop smiling (:.

[IndianaPolitico]

Very clever, I should have guessed the campaign would lowball it. Last time they said they would raise over 3 million, but ended up with 4.5. I had a feeling that we would do well, but be within 8 million? WOW! https://secure.ronpaul2012.com/

[Rudeman]

Maybe the 5 mil estimate was before the push and money bomb totals?

[sailingaway]

tweeting like crazy!!!!!!!

near the end they said $4 mill and got $4.5 and people were thinking they would low ball....

Holy hell- this is amazing!

I guess the campaign liked the idea of playing down their total as many of us suggested last quarter.

$8 million is HUGE! That's just three shy of Romney's corporate war chest for this quarter!

I suspect Perry was downplaying and Romney said 11 - 13 so it is likely to be at least 13 but it is RON they don't expect this from, because he has never done it before....

Thank you. Wow, we have raised $400,228 today so far. Truly incredible.

I wish I could "like" this.

[Oddone]

When is the deadline 12AM EST, PST or Hawaii Time?

[IndianaPolitico]

You can "rep" it. Click the little sheriff's star at the bottom of the post.

[trey4sports]

When is the deadline 12AM EST, PST or Hawaii Time?


they will probably push it to PST is my guess. I don't think there is a specific FEC imposed time zone so the campaign will probably go as long as they can.

[sailingaway]

When is the deadline 12AM EST, PST or Hawaii Time?

I'm almost certain it is EST, it is a legal deadline, stuff postmarked by then or in, and the campaign headquarters office is in VA. (They should have moved it to Nevada with Steve B.....:p)

[beardedlinen]

When is the deadline 12AM EST, PST or Hawaii Time?

I have the same question.

[gosmo]

Already been done!

[The Midnight Ride]

This could play VERY well with the media reporting that he raised $5 million earlier today. This would come out of nowhere!

[orenbus]

They should have moved the National HQ to NH or IA imo, reduces cost and gets the focus on the key states that are going to determine (because of lack of media attention) if Ron Paul wins the race or not.

I hope active military have been donating.

I am sure that they are.. They are out there risking their lives; their life could end at any moment. If it were me, I would be donating all I could. It's either staying there and risk dying, or coming home thanks to Dr. Paul. Just my sentiments.

[gosmo]

This could play VERY well with the media reporting that he raised $5 million earlier today. This would come out of nowhere!

Or they could continue to say he raised 5 million regardless.

I would, but I wonder why Manilow changed his tune right after Obama had that celebrity fundraiser in Hollywood? Obama is their commander in chief -- what if it became 'frowned upon'?

Probably won't happen, I just don't want to lose that....

If you can't, that's fine.
Instead please work your keyboard to spread the message and help convince others that Ron is the way to go. Spend you time on other forums with people that may be apathetic, undecided, uninterested and just plain uninformed. Don't wast your time with strong opponents. Just be nice and move on.
