Love it.

Via Daily Caller (http://dailycaller.com/2011/12/13/ron-paul-supporters-crash-mock-newt-gingrichs-party/).

WINDHAM, N.H. — A group of Ron Paul supporters staged a satirical protest outside at least two Newt Gingrich events today, pretending to be ardent fans of the former House Speaker while holding signs that criticized his past positions and personal baggage.

They call themselves the Party Crashers (or, they did, when asked if they had a name), and held signs with slogans including “Divorce Lawyers for Newt” and “TARP recipients.”

“We love Newt!” said one, when approached by The Daily Caller and asked who they were with.

“We stand out in the cold for Newt!” echoed another.

“We’re from America. We love America, that’s why we want Newt. He’ll start more wars. We want that,” said a girl with dreadlocks.

“We want a Washington insider,” a girl said.

“We like Freddie Mac,” said another.

“He’ll keep the ‘too big to fail’ alive, sucking the last life out of the treasury. And we know that he wants individual mandates,” added another.

“We want to see corruption not only continue, but increase,” insisted one girl.

“And the wars!” another woman chimed in. “We want Syria bombed. And Iran.”
Much more effective than just yelling "Ron Paul", and, let's face it, by now everybody knows that the only visible supporters are RP supporters.

This is SOOOO easy to implement en-masse (and across multiple platforms).

It also would catch on quick enough that even non-Ron Paul supporters would instantly recognize it for what it is. We have less than a month left. Go!

Not only is this awesome... it's devastatingly effective.

The report makes it sound like they were genuinely having fun with it (rather than being disrespectful to the Newt supporters) and I suspect that whoever received one of their constitutional report card probably kept a more open mind toward the points being made.

This part had me in stitches because I could totally picture how much fun these jokesters were having playing up their act to the reporter.


With that exception, however, everyone the group stayed in character.


“He’s a dirty hippie,” said one girl, referring to a Paul supporter who was mentioned in conversation. “Ron Paul’s a dirty hippie,” she laughed.The group came together through Meetup, a website that arranges group meetings. “

The Meetup for Newt,” joked one. “Newtup! Newt Hampshire.”

If this happens in mass at his events and media picks up on it, it's curtains for Newt.

They should have prominently displayed signs calling for the execution of people caught with Marijuana.

Yeah, pretty funny. Kinda wish they'd stuck to not disclosing their candidate, but at least they were clever and amusing about it.

I think this should be Drudged. It IS gold, because it shows how creative Ron Paul supporters are, it shows a great sense of humor, and it gets the facts out there. It's kinda like Jon Stewart. :D

What do you guys think? I'm sure it will end up on Drudge sooner or later!

They would figure it out anyway, I think. Who else has supporters with this much heart and drive to see their candidate win. Very clever.:cool:

I love the sarcasm. These folks have a place in my heart. Go party crashers. Newt is the only man who can bail out the banks and make you like paying for it. Go Newt.

Man, if I was newt supporter I'd either be fightin' mad or totally crestfallen. Maybe both.

Little birdy told me

Xxx told the Daily Caller our candidate's initials were R.P., or they wouldn't interview us with no identification. She was hoping they wouldn't be able to pin it down to Ron that way (rick Perry). But Newt's staff knows it's us.

Not sure I'd they could have said anti newt or undecided

The group was reluctant to say which candidate they were actually supporting.

“Do a story on us without knowing who we’re with,” implored one female Crasher. “Please?”

After some prodding, she finally agreed to give the initials of the candidate her group was in fact supporting: “R.P.”

They didn't give away anything besides initials. Obviously they're all Rick Perry supporters.

They should not have associated themselves with Ron Paul.
