I mean, I know you guys did the super voter bomb and that is great but that was paid for via donations made specifically for the project. My impression was that all the fundraising you guys did from early on was being accumulated to fund ads, and other things in Iowa and NH?

I know there is a certain level of discretion that you must follow so as to not telegraph your intentions to opposing campaigns, but is there any kind of update you can give us as to what your plans are for December and January?

I'm also curious how much cash they raised at the Manhattan fundraiser, and if they have any more commercials planned for Iowa.

I would like to see more direct mail, news paper ads, and radio ads.

I agree with this. Cheap and effective.

Yes..that is good information to know. If that fundraiser was very effective, RevolutionPAC should do MANY MORE in weeks-to-come...
possibly get Dr RAND Paul to appear on those for meet-and-greet?

The Restore Our Future PAC, the Romney SUPERPAC announced today an astounding $3.1 million TV, Radio, and Print Buy in Iowa for the rest of December.

The RP Grassroots just raised $1.2 million for Ron Paul's Campaign to buy TV and Radio Advertising, plus direct mailings in both Iowa and New Hampshire.

The Revolution SUPERPAC is currently DARK in the Hawkeye State. Absolutely DEVASTATING!!!!

Frankly, not being on the Air right now is a failure of the Revolution SUPERPAC that is stunning.

It is obvious that the Board of Directors of the Revolution SUPERPAC have been unable to persuade Liberty Minded Individuals with Money to contribute in large amounts.

Enough said!!!

Maybe there just aren't that many wealthy people who are libertarians? Many of the wealthy people today got wealthy from crony capitalism. If you haven't noticed, a lot of the people on these boards are pretty poor.

Polskash I agree but by definition SUPERPACS go after individuals that can contribute funds above and beyond the $2500.00 individual limit imposed by the FEC for a Candidate.

In other words, like the Las Vegas Casinos,the SUPERPACS primarily are going after the Big Whales, ie, the wealthy for large donations.

Ron Paul Forum Members for the most part would not fit the target audience.

RevolutionPAC isn't as "successful" as the other PACs because we don't get money from large corporations, the banks, and etc... For the most part Ron Paul supporters are just normal average income kind of people. Keep in mind we consist of a lot of college students and young people in general as well.

Maybe they are just waiting to buy ads until closer to the election to saturate the airwaves at a more meaningful time?

I personally think RevPac will serve a greater purpose in the general election.

At some point Ron Paul supporters are going to use up their $2500 limit. They'll need to head over to RevPac to continue the process.

Unfortunately they won't be able to do anything until people see Ron Paul is electable after Iowa. RevPAC promoised 10 million in the bank by the end of the year and failed to deliver.

they didn't promise that. Secondly their target wasn't even the end of the year... it was like Feb. 2012 or something like that.

Go to their website. They are doing a few things. They did the supervoter bomb which you know about. They are also putting full page anti newt ads in newspapers in IOWA and NH, and a few things as well. It is all listed on their main page.

yeah I see that, but the supervoter bomb was funded specifically from donations earmarked for that project. They put up a ticker and whatnot and we raised the money for the project in an alloted amount of time. They are also doing a newspaper ad buy and a mobile billboard that I know of.

The ability to target a specific section of a political electorate's demographic is an extremely effective, and economical means of political campaigning.

In Des Moines, Iowa there is a GIGANTIC Digital Billboard directly over the largest shopping complex in the heart of Des Moines. It has visibility from as far away as 700 feet. There are traffic lights, stop lights all over the place.

It's Christmas time. 20% of the entire population of Des Moines will visit that mall and associated shopping complexes.

$4,000 to run a Digital Billboard ad ... not only on that Board but on ALL SEVEN Boards in Des Moines for an ENTIRE WEEK, all of the boards being located at key, critical traffic junctures throughout the Des Moines demographic.

For The Win in Iowa: Please see these professional level Digital Billboards designed with significant, boot on the ground, political target market research.

These are ready to go NOW. All they need is to have the "Paid for" applied to the board.

I JUST listened to Gary Franchi say they were going to use Billboards in Des Moines. I have tagged, I have spammed, I have shared on facebook, I have sent a message to Franchi himself who is on my friend's list on facebook ... nothing, nadda ... zip, not a peep.

Once the Digital Billboards are running on the 7 Boards they can be updated, changed out at any time. It's as simple as sending an email to your account representative. My partner and I, who lives 1/2 mile from that mall, in Des Moines have both Clear Channel and Lamar Digital Billboard account executives standing by. The Boards are pre-approved, awaiting final approval with a down payment for service at the VP level at this time.
