Its a cnn.com stream thing, not actual CNN coverage.

[Maverick]

Pffft, another commercial break and they haven't talked about RP yet. Just a clip of McCain saying that he's going to win New Hampshire :rolleyes:

[kalami]

McCain's face looks like it's melting off.

I liked how they handled the paper endorsement though. "it's very influential in that it endorsed the winner of the primary twice in 40 years"

[JoshLowry]

did it go on yet?

Not yet.

[BLS]

Yeah, I see that. Trying to find the realtime streaming online somewhere.

[hawkeyenick]

This isn't very cooperative with my mac :*(

[Shaun]

Nothing...
Wolf is a hypster

[kylejack]

Yeah, I see that. Trying to find the realtime streaming online somewhere.

Doesn't exist.

[nunaem]

Minor correction: CNN advertised a "surprise prediction" by RP not a "fundraising surprise".

[BLS]

Doesn't exist.


EVERYTHING exists....you just have to find it.

:D

[kalami]

You think it's him predicting 14-15m dollars or that he can win NH?

[shepburn]

You think it's him predicting 14-15m dollars or that he can win NH?

$14-15M is my vote ... and hope!

[tesla23]

Probably him predicting around $15 million and a rise in poll numbers.

[FreeTraveler]

Too bad it's not $20, NH and the blimp! :D

[devil21]

It was just a mention about RP's goal of 12 million for the quarter. He said they expected up to 14 million.

[nunaem]

$14-15M is my vote ... and hope!

Nope, 12-14.

[icon124]

it was just on....but only for like 15 secs talking bout how he is gonna raise 15 million or so

[Maverick]

"That is impressive" says Blitzer about RP's predicted $14 million Q4. And that's all the mention...better than nothing I guess. It was positive though...no bull like "fringe" or "longshot" thrown in :p

[MGreen]

Just a repeat, but a Paul supporter's letter did get into the Cafferty file. It was quite sweet.

[JoshLowry]

Nice, Jack Cafferty just included a Ron Paul answer for his question.

[mrd]

Sweeeet :)

[ClayTrainor]

Woohoo... Thompson is about to attack mike huckabee.

Divide and conquer :D

[Highstreet]

$14-15M is my vote ... and hope!

That's what it was.

Then he got a plug from an email to Cafferty's question.

[aspiringconstitutionalist]

There's no way we stay under $15m. I predict $18-20m for the quarter. We'll pass $11m in a few days, and once we're in the $11m range and within striking distance of $12m, there's going to be a huge surge to finish off the goal, which will probably happen right before 12/16. And then, of course, there will be 12/16, which will raise at least the $4.3m of 11/5, plus some--say $5m total. That will bring us up to $17m, and then we'll probably end up within $18-20m by the end of the quarter. Of course, 11/5 blew the lid off my predictions then, so who knows? If the same rate of pledged subscribers vs. actual donors applies on 12/16 as it did on 11/5, we could end up with an $8m day, which means we bust the $20m mark half-way through December. A lot could happen.

[Thom1776]

Serious Lowball!!


Twenty Million All Day Long, Baby!!

[icon124]

^ dont u mean december 16th...not the 6th?

[Delaware]

Heres what i think...

Lets say by december 16th we are 11.5 million, if we get to lets say 17 million, and the quarter ends at the end of december, we are going to make a rush for 20. Guarantee it.

[OferNave]

I think Dec 16 will be big. I think it will be bigger if we go get more people to sign up. :)

I agree, but it's certain that we will have $14 million, and that number just made news, so Ron Paul picked a good number.

[ClayTrainor]

yup, the media is going to be blown away when they see what we actually pull for the full quarter :D

[Taco John]

Awesome!

[JustBcuz]

Serious Lowball!!

You know it!

As long as we get to $12m, we're OK. We'll have met our goal, and raised just as much as anyone else. (Romney's loans to himself not included).

The number we 'need' is $14M, that's 2M over Q4 goal, and that's the # Dr. Paul's been floating around. This gets us 'good' press coverage.

The number we 'want' is around $15-16M, that's impressive stuff, and almost guaranteed to lead all Repubs. We're getting into 'great' press coverage. TeaParty needs to be MORE than $4.3M to get here.

If we should pop $20M, that gets us to WOW territory. In order to get here, we need new donors. Fresh blood. Hit the streets. Walk your precinct. Get out and find it.


TeaParty07.com :D:D:D

[BLS]

Awesome!

DUDE.......:mad:

[Taco John]

DUDE.......:mad:



Heh... Sorry. I can't help myself sometimes. :D

[bolidew]

We can get 11M by Dec.15.
Then TeaParty ...

[Menthol Patch]

Ron Paul will easily raise 20 million or more this quarter!

[voytechs]

It was a 30sec sound byte. They did say that he might raise as much as 14mil this quarter and that would be huge. I love it when the expectations are just perfect.

[Naraku]

I think we'll make $20 million on December 16th. That 24,000 number will likely be around 45,000 by December 16th and then there'll be about twice as many people. After that will be average $225 per person since many will go all out to meet the goal.

I predict we beat Obama's record of $32.5 million for the quarter, possibly on December 16th.

Before I get any doubters:

About 80,000 meetup members.

90,000 Myspace friends.

24,000 pledges with 13 days left.

21,000 new donors on November 5th.

100,000 donors so far with only a small percent maxed out.

Average donations around $100 every day without weeks and weeks to save up.

This not only can happen, it will happen. :D

[RevolutionSD]

As much as I hate CNN, I hate fox even more. At least CNN gives us a tiny bit of coverage, and sometimes it's even positive. Fox rarely mentions RP and if they ever do it's always prefaced by "longshot" and is often a hitpiece.

I'm known for being a bit rough around the edges, but this is not funny.

[kylejack]

Rick-rolling is a time-honored tradition. Adding a Hammer-roll to the mix is just the next evolution of rolling.

[jm1776]

Wolf didn't use the L word? Damn, he must really be catch'in on!

[Phoenix Revolution]

People saying 20m have myspace accounts and not talking to their neighbors about RP message.

I say that we reach 11m by the 15th and then on 16th we bring in 6.771m.

Its better if you tell people that he will get 17 this Q and be underestimated then overestimated with the 20m.
