It's still there. How can you miss the picture of the smiling Doctor?

My favorite part:

If these maniacs pull it off, I'll be up there in the blimp's gondola as we fly to D.C., where we'll likely find a furious Dick Cheney in his duck-hunting hat, firing his shotgun at the massive craft.

Hillarious!

[jordie]

Its on the front page, its on slide thing 1/5.

[pazzo83]

Hahaha, that article was hilarious.

[DrNoZone]

That's awesome! Politico, Reuters, The Boston Globe, now AOL....what's next? It looks like the payoff is already coming in. Good job!

[RonPaulJunkie]

AOL is the homepage for millions of old people!
Old people are the ones who still use AOL.

Great to have all the young people supporting him but he needs more of the older types and this should help.

[JerzieJennie]

Great job! Finally got a chance to donate. Give these guys some money. Who doesn't stare when they see a blimp go by? Kids point it out to their parents. Parents point it out to their kids. Bored people in traffic have something to look at. The video with the flight of the valkyries in the background cracks me up, too!

[Wyle]

I voted for the gold blimp :)

[LynnB]

It's a dead heat for the nomination poll between yes and no....go Vote!

[Pete Kay]

The video with the flight of the valkyries in the background cracks me up, too!

Where is this video? That was my idea to mount speakers on the blimp and blast "Flight of the Valkyries". Someone listened! :D

[angrydragon]

People on AOL are usually half negative on everything.

It's also the homepage for anybody that buys an hp computer and doesn't ever change their homepage (that would be me)

So it's for the old and the LAZY :)

Absolutely the BEST article I've seen yet. Positive, but funny because it's obvlously very tongue-in-cheek laughing at the Paulites. I hope all the comments that come from here recognize that!

Best Quote

"Now, the Paulians have turned their collective gaze skyward. How might the Message of Freedom be brought up to cloud level? What is their secret weapon?

Easy: Just lease a monstrous 200-foot-long blimp for $350,000 a month, plaster it with Ron Paul slogans, and set the beast loose on Washington, New York, Boston and eventually to New Hampshire.

The world will know by midnight tonight if enough money has been collected to launch the airship next week. If these maniacs pull it off, I'll be up there in the blimp's gondola as we fly to D.C., where we'll likely find a furious Dick Cheney in his duck-hunting hat, firing his shotgun at the massive craft."

[TechnoGuyRob]

Damnit, I just checked and it has been taken off the front page. That's normal for AOL. Most news stories that they think are of interest rotate on the news tabs throughout the day. Well, it was up there a good 5 hours with Ron Paul's picture too. A lot of people must have seen it.
