Black This Out prediction thread!

[Elwar]

How much do you think he will raise?

[Spanky]

I'm being optimistic, with everyone doing rallies in NYC and so on.

6.9 million

[InTradePro]

Seems something in the range of 3m - 3.5m based on pledges. Hoping for 4m+.

Let's not fake expectation on this thread. Better to under estimate then create false hopes.

[bluesc]

$3M

[trey4sports]

yeah, i'm going to say 3 - 4M but you never know. If we got 5M it would send shockwaves to the establishment.

[TheTyke]

I think some people get too excited. $30 billion! :D Let's reach for the stars, but be happy if we just win the planet. :)

[LibertyEsq]

3 million really? You guys are really lowballing

Not really... that'd be three times most of our moneybombs thus far, which would be fantastic! But I'm cautiously optimistic because this one seems to have more energy and promotion than the others.

[qwerty]

17.000 forum members promoting whole day for BTO and will contact 100 people! 1.7 million more contacted and + 10 million day! :)

[LibertyEsq]

4-5

[qwerty]

my 2 cents!

only a loser will predict under 6 million, a winner will work and make sure that we get +6 million! :)

[LibertyEsq]

im just trying to keep expectations down with 4-5m but I think we'll have $3 million by 3pm ;)

[wizardwatson]

I say between 1 and 2 million.

[No Free Beer]

2 mil

[johndeal]

4.6million

[gosmo]

I would think that 5million+ is needed to really rock the establishment.

[Liberty74]

I think $4M is doable.

[Danke]

Over a million.

[trey4sports]

we got 1.6 mil. on Ron's birthday with a week of promotion, you're out of your f'n mind if you think we'll only get 2 million.

[HeyArchie]

4+ Million

[Paulitical Correctness]

5,392,112.27

[pauladin]

3,375,000

[IndianaPolitico]

I voted for 4 million, but this has the potential to rocket past that.

[bolidew]

This is gonna be the BIGGEST bomb during the primary election phase for Dr. Paul.

[BuddyRey]

6 Mil or More. Let's make it happen!!!

[afwjam]

Its a perfect storm!

[Danke]

Over a million.

Winner!!

[mport1]

3 million really? You guys are really lowballing

Unfortunately if we don't pick up the pace it looks like that may happen judging the graphs vs. past money bombs. We need to push HARDER!

[Anti Federalist]

Winner!!

With the clusterfuck of confusion around the donation site, we'll be lucky to see 2 million.

[orenbus]

If you guys want a 4M+ MB it will have to be on the Fifth of November, can't beat the date, it's easy to remember, pun intended. Anyone who thinks we should do it on the 11th is going to cost the campaign millions.

I am praying for 3M. There was a thread to pray for the debate and it went well. Thread to pray for moneybomb please? :toady:

[Chris from Upstate NY]

so I guess the person who voted 1 mil or less lost regardless of what we raise...

The problem is with the blowback for doing it on that day. Especially with the OWS going on and the people there, not us of course, who want violence.

I don't think it would be a wise move at all.

[LibertyEagle]

Question. Is Alex Jones pushing it? I don't see a thing about it on his website.

People tried at length to get him involved, we were even trying to pay to have it advertised. Mer.

Yea the thing is the next national sign bomb is already set for 11/5:

And one thing we've forgotten from December 16, 2007 is that to have an extremely effective MB (as pointed out in another thread) you have to associate it with some visible activist events such as rallies, sign waves, etc. This gets people to interact with each other and motivates those that would not normally donate to donate money by having those around them suggest they do so. Also generates a buzz and energy beyond just internet advertising through social media (word of mouth).

Finally the idea of OWS or other groups trying to take over one of our two largest fund raising dates should not just be accepted as the cost of campaigning, especially when the cost runs in the millions that will be used for ad buys that will reach targeted early state voters, I don't know if blowback is really the issue.

Word I'm getting is Jones wasn't on air today.

It's all over Prison Planet Forums.

I voted 4 million, but I think the bomb should be extended til it gets to 10 million even if it takes the rest of the month.
