Ron Paul's 'Money bomb' 2.0

Ron Paul's supporters are preparing for a Tea Party (http://teaparty07.com/) — the campaign's next major fundraising event.


Scheduled for the Dec. 16 anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, it aims to raise $10 million in one day for Paul's campaign.


Their goal is to have 100,000 donors contribute $100 each. So far they claim pledges from 7,148 persons.


That follows last week's "money bomb," which raised $4.3 million in 24 hours.


Paul's campaign (http://www.ronpaul2008.com/) already has crossed the $8 million mark for this current quarter, putting him well on his way to his $12 million goal — the amount his campaign says he needs to raise to buy radio and television ads they believe he will need to compete.

What a world when the MSM begins promoting grassroots events for us. :)

The MSM attention December 16 is getting will help it surpass November 5.

This is why more than one site can pop up promoting the 16th event. MSM has already ordained teaparty07 as the official site. See it all works out

AFAIK, teaparty07 is the only site that will be emailing to launch the fund raising blitz. More sites without gathering the contact info necessary to co-ordinate this will only dilute the effort.

Don't mess with a good system, it didn't work well when 11/11 was decided as a protest date to 11/5.

Besides, the MSM will use teaparty07 to promote the event, and the larger the recorded #s there, the greater impact it will have on new viewers.
