And if he wins a day...?

Mike Huckabee: "I beat Ron Paul in fundrainsing on one day this quarter!"

Host: "Congratulations! Wasn't that the day after they raised $5 million in one week? Wasn't that Ron's worst day of the quarter and your best day of the quarter?"


Lol, he won't win anyway, but so what if he does?

Anyway, let Huck have his day in the sun. Besides, notice how his graph shoots up a few thousand dollars on several occasions. Some of his supporters are probably just maxing out and/or doing brief money-bombs.

I've lurked in their forums, and I tell you, it's a lesson to us about how important it is not to censor posts!

The guy who created that website (in good faith) was almost banned by their grassroots forum because they thought he was a closet Paul supporter. They exist in perpetual fear of any political discourse (they think that there are armies of us hiding there trying to post) and lock and ban threads (such as a recent one on whether medical marijuana should be legalized, and another one whether the RealID was a good idea) the moment there is the smallest deviation from the orthodoxy. I even read that they are trying to modify the forum code so that moderators get copies of all private messages, due to the fear that Ron Paul supporters are secretly converting their members via private forum messages.

They will never be able to organize anything inventive with the authoritarian culture they've developed there. But at least they practice what they preach -- top-down censorship and spying, trading liberty for a false sense of security.

I highly doubt that there's even really that many Paul supporters who bother to register there. But they'll ruin their forums to guard against us just like they'll ruin the country (if they can) to protect against the hordes of Islamic terrorists just waiting to invade.

Chowda, I donated yesterday for the mini-bomb and I'm practically tapped out, but if it looks like the Huckster is gaining on us, I'll dig a little deeper. If it becomes necessary, I hope others here will join me. Let's do positive things here to keep the competition demoralized. :)

[Original_Intent]

So Huck's 20 supporters go all-in on one day? IF he wins the day which I don't think is gonna happen, I just don't see how this gives Huck bragging rights? It's like bragging that you beat a runner in a hundred-yard dash right after he got through running a 30 mile marathon (in other words the fact that you were bragging about it as an accomplishment reflects more poorly on you) :D

[EvilEngineer]

The one thing I really notice about huck's graphs is that his donors for the most part are maxing out. You can see this by the large jumps over a small time. Where as Ron Paul's graphs show small gradual raises, small donations by more people. In the end, we will win... we are still only 1.9% maxed out and that percentage is shrinking as we get more and more new donors. So there is still sooo much more room for donations.

[LibertyEagle]

I even read that they are trying to modify the forum code so that moderators get copies of all private messages, due to the fear that Ron Paul supporters are secretly converting their members via private forum messages.

:eek: Wow! Tell me that this doesn't rub off on Huckabee in some way. The fact is that it does.

Just like what we do and say, reflects on Paul. Please everyone, remember that.

[fcofer]

I don't think Huckabee has won a single day yet... but as of 12:00 EST its anyone's game!

Hmm... anyone notice that the slope of the graph inflected (to postive!) shortly after this post was made? I wonder if the forums were responsible for that?

By the way, I can't believe that I don't know the answer to this question, but we don't have a forum donation code, do we? (I suppose that if we did, and it was available through the widget, chowda would have a 'ronpaulforums donations' graph up.)

I made the post (second post actually) about Medical Marijuana. It got shut down pretty quick. I did speak with a Mod about what was going on. Essentially the forums ALL of them are not for debate. They are simply there to present Huck. I had been trying to be a somewhat active poster over there, but it's pretty hard when half your messages are deleted.

[werdd]

proof that more people want to debate him than support him.

[Janet0116]

I am in Little Rock. I swear I read in the paper over the weekend (not sure if it was Fri/sat/sun) that Janet Huckabee spoke to a group of ladies and mentioned that she (they) support drivers license for illegals. Is this well known among Huckabee supporters? It doesnt surprise me because the Huckster would love open borders with Mexico.

The longer Huckabee stays in the race as a serious contender, the better.

[rpfreedom08]

I don't understand how he is like 3rd in the polls with no money comming in. Something is strange with these polls this year. huck has no money comming in with a "large number of supporters" and paul is at the bottom of the polls with more money than most of the front runners. Something is fishy.

Well, it's been my experience that when people get converted to Ron Paul, they get really converted and make a real psychological investment in him winning (which later translates into a financial investment).

I've thought a lot about this, because I was once really worried about Huck. I do think that he's a real threat to the other neo-cons, because he's a slick talker and debater and has that kind of Bill Clintonesque pandering ability (where he makes his pandering on any given issue sound like a virtue). I think that his support is made up largely of religious social conservatives who are disenchanted with the frontrunners because of their various personal flaws. However, they're not really into Huck the way that Ron Paul converts are into Paul. They just like him better than the other choices.

Thanks to the MSM, Huck probably has better name recognition than Paul. But I bet that he'll need poll numbers at least twice that of Paul to match him on the primary day -- our supporters will vote, both with their time and their wallets. Evidently, support is not as deep for the Huckster. Plus, he's not going to be polling at twice of Paul a month from now, anyway.

The Huckster might graduate to being a real threat (to us) if Thompson or McCain drop out before the primaries, but I doubt that this will happen. Right now, he's already serious problem for Romney and the Ghoul, because he's stealing the religious warhawk vote.

It's probably getting time to remove this thread to General Politics. :)

[qsecofr]

Don't worry there is no grand conspiracy, MSM is profit motivated and they are starting to come around because Ron is a hot story right now. The polls will eventually reflect that but Huck got a large bump that coincided with Thompson's fall. They are jumping boat and not committed to any one candidate.

This is a political wildfire year for Repubs and a little food for thought, since 1968 can you find a year there has not been a Bush, Nixon, or Dole on the ticket? The base has no clear leader and are vetting the candidates one by one, Huck is the Socons grasping at straws.

Putting "get out the vote on vote day" infrastructure aside, he is on track to win Iowa.

I agree. We should not do this. It is low class, for one thing.

Ok, I can't resist.... It is also, lacking honor. :D

[fcofer]

The base has no clear leader and are vetting the candidates one by one, Huck is the Socons grasping at straws.

I absolutely agree. His numbers shot up after his MSM coverage at the end of last month, but his Rasmussen polls went down from 14% to 9% over the last week with an MOE of +/- 4%. This means that there in a 95% probability that some individuals who formerly supported Huck have since converted to other candidates, meaning that his campaign actually has lost momentum. To whom?

Well, a certain other candidate bumped up in Rasmussen to 6%, which is within Huck's MOE. (According to Rasmussen's most current poll, since Huck and RP are within the same MOE, the poll tells nothing about whose support is greater.)

I think Huck got a bunch of SoCons and FisCons at the end of October thanks to all his MSM coverage. THEN the FisCons found out about Ron Paul. Huck cannot hold fiscal conservatives against Ron Paul.

Don't get me wrong, I do think that Huck has a good chance. I'd put him at about equivalent with Romney for winning the primary. I think the SoCons will abandon the MSM-anointeds and come to him. But he's still a warhawk and he has a crappy tax record, so he won't be hurting US, one way or another. :)

It just demonstrates the impact of media coverage on poll numbers. Now that Ron Paul has started getting some serious MSM coverage, his poll numbers have started rising.

You can see the same effect with Thompson at www.pollster.com. Prior to January 1, 2007, he was polling the same 1% as the "second tier" candidates. Then, from January through March, there was a slew of coverage talking about the possibility that Thompson would run and generally hyping his candidacy. He name was included again in a poll in early April and low and behold, he was at 8%. He hadn't done any campaigning -- it was all media hype.

I think it's because donations (or better yet, number of donors) is a true indicator of support. The candidates with less of that are probably more likely to be favored by people who are not passionate about the campaign, maybe having just learned a little about him from the news and debates but not doing anything to promote/help him before they actually cast their vote.

I bet even "mainstream" polls would show Paul in a much stronger position if they took into account certainty or intensity of choice, as well as how informed people are about their candidate and how closely they've been following the election. That's why Paul wins the post-debate text polls (that and appeal across party lines) which you can't even spam.

They do and Paul has an impressive 48% firmly decided not bad considering the top tier are lucky to break the mid 30's.

Same here.

And even though I was never going to vote for Huck, I used to kinda like the guy. However, he's really coming across as the Arkansas version of Mitt Romney nowadays.

[ronpaulyourmom]

damn I'm supprised it's only 48%

Most likely that percentage is the result of people not wanting to 'waste' their vote. So they like Paul, they indicate him as their choice, but leave open the possibility of voting for somebody else like say if there's a certain candidate they definitely do not want to win.

Hopefully as Paul climbs in the polls, that 48% will increase even more.

Betsy Hagan, Arkansas director of the conservative Eagle Forum and a key backer of his early runs for office, was once "his No. 1 fan." She was bitterly disappointed with his record. "He was pro-life and pro-gun, but otherwise a liberal," she says. "Just like Bill Clinton he will charm you, but don't be surprised if he takes a completely different turn in office."

Phyllis Schlafly, president of the national Eagle Forum, is even more blunt. "He destroyed the conservative movement in Arkansas, and left the Republican Party a shambles," she says. "Yet some of the same evangelicals who sold us on George W. Bush as a 'compassionate conservative' are now trying to sell us on Mike Huckabee."

I think the "values voters" see through Huckster just fine. They support him because they believe he will push their agenda. It's not that they don't know he is a politican before being a man of principle, it is that they don't care.

Sadly, as a Mormon, I think there is a lot of that same sentiment among my fellow church member towards Mitt Romney. They vaguely know that he does not support their principles but they think things like "Oh, if a Mormon becomes president then think of how many people around the world will investigate our church!" It's really sad, because the Constitution is revered as a divinely inspired document, and people that were supporting their beliefs rather than using this "ends justifies the means" thinking I feel they would overwhelmingly support Ron paul

[Falseflagop]

Secondly, they have the same 3 people commenting on every topic...that's it. same 3 people; and then one RP supporter telling them they need to branch out and not rip on each other so much. Kind of funny really...sheesh...

Finally, they act like there are absolutely no other candidates; so if they just keep repeating the same mantra to themselves that huckabee is the best value voter; he will win somehow...

That's the fruit of the censorship tree, of course. Their whole forum has turned into a mere advertisement -- they ban and attack their own supporters left and right. I was more than a little worried when they first started up, but their totalitarian policies have pretty much destroyed their board, and I don't think they'll ever rival us for enthusiasm, political consciousness and creativity.

The main administrator of their forum is one of the few moderators there who seems reasonable. I'm actually wonder sometimes why he's not in our camp. Of course, the answer to that question will never appear on his forum, so we don't have to worry about it too much. *scratches head in disbelief*

Kudos to the administrators of ronpaulforums for effectively balancing these concerns here and navigating this board to its current eminent position -- I'm glad I don't have that responsibility!

It's about providing incentive to RP supporters, not Huck supporters... clearly they can't fundraise their way out of a wet paper bag... but seeing him pull ahead (even when it's offline donations) might provide some RP supporter the incentive to donate another $25.

If this turns into a competition between us and them, there is only one way for it to end... them in tears and us with alot more money.

I don't really worry about Huckabee or his supporters. Sometimes I'll lurk in their forums for a laugh, but for some reason I just don't see him as a threat. He might sound good when he talks, but he doesn't actually say anything of any substance. He's too busy cracking jokes and talking about "honor" to make any statements of substance.

bump

[frasu]

i guess i have a problem today with letting huckabee take the cake, so bump

[chowda]

I'm glad so many people are as ticked off about this as me!
bump!

[chowda]

Also... let me express how freaking irritating it is that they're dumping they're offline totals directly into the stream throughout the day like this... If it was just a big spike each day when they loaded them all into the system or something, I would understand... Who knows when these were sent... if they were in response to some particular event or something... ruins the entire point of graphing the data if you can basically fluff the numbers up whenever you feel like donation rates are low.

[ronpaulyourmom]

You really think they're doing that? This is probably in response to Huckabee getting shafted by the NRLC as a protest, and then tonight he posted some big poll numbers. I'm sure Huck is going to finish the month strong, maybe hit 1.2 million.

[NinjaPirate]

Haha, sheesh! another spike for Schmuckabee!

[frasu]

well it looks like this is the goal behind today's donations


As contributions are made towards our November fundraising goal, we will reveal Mike Huckabee through quotes, unique video, photo galleries, special downloads and interesting facts about Mike Huckabee and his tenure as Governor of Arkansas.

in any case, I was thinking we could get some donations in, but people look laid back today

[progrock]

what a fat bastard lol

[MozoVote]

I wouldn't get too worked up about Huckabee's grassroots. Just compare HucksArmy with FredThompsonForum on Alexa, and you'll see they are about equivalent. :rolleyes:

[Adamsa]

Who cares at all if he gets the rest of this month? December 16th is going to blow everyone away.

[BrazilLuLa]

We can't be complacent.

The 16th has to be big, and so does the continuous momentum between Nov. 5 and the Tea Party.

We're $1+ million ahead of schedule, no need to sweat it TOO much.

Huck's supporters must have a wild hair up their arse.

[fcofer]

Well, Huck has been adding offline donations today.

But still, it looks like we are finally going to be outraised, even if there are technical reasons for why it shouldn't count.

Bleh.

[chowda]

two days in a row we're battling it out... man..

[bolidew]

We are beaten badly today!!

'nuff said

[Paulitician]

Goddammit. He has already raised more than 1.5 million dollars. That means his 4rth quarter total will probably be 3 million+. Dammit!

[steph3n]

[Paulitician]

That's NOT GOOD!!
Seriously! It's horrible news, and we must stop it!

[Inflation]

DON'T PANIC!

We want Huck to stay in the race. His supporters can attack Mitt and Rudy, while we go out knocking on doors and manning lawn chairs at info tables.

Go Huck! Bring down Rudy and Mitt to make room for Paul.

[chowda]

The campaign just sent out an email asking for donations.. we'll see where that gets us.
