Help me, I'm losing my mind.

Right now at ronpaul2008 the thermometer says $11,355,307.62 but ronpaulgraphs says $10,871,535 (as of 9:30 pm eastern).

Did half a million dollars just show up from somewhere? Offline totals added in?

What's going on?

I'm not sure I just noticed this as well. Maybe we can break the $12 million mark before the 16th!!!

Hehe, must have JUST happened because I didn't see any threads when I made mine. I would guess offline then if it jumped that quick.

I doubt we'll hit the 12M mark before Dec 16th. We're close enough now to hit it within one or two hours on Sunday early morning though.

that was big suggesting his recent stops were huge.

It must be offline donations, I checked a few hours ago and it wasn't at $11 million yet.

LOL, I literally started my computer, went to a few other sites, then went to the official site. Went wide eyed. Refreshed. Came here and looked up and down the page a minute or two seeing if there was a thread. Didn't see one so I posted. Boom! 3 more threads LOL.

It would be cool to break 12M. I can't say I'll be apart of it.......I refuse to donate my hard earned money towards freedom....... lol! I'm waiting for the party!

It would be nice to say we met the goal even before the Tea Party, but I don't think it really matters that much. The Tea Party numbers themselves will overshadow when the goal was met.

Ron must have put all the change in the change jar into the total.

I've mentioned this once before, but it might be nice to not break the 12M mark before the tea party. There is a small chance(infinitely small probably) that the media will report Dr. Paul breaking his $12M goal 2 weeks early. I would love to see the first reports on the news shows say "Ron Paul broke his $12M goal for the quarter this morning" and then see around noon "Ron Paul has broken his previous one day fundraising record with 4.5M in donations." The next day would hopefully be something like "Ron Paul doubled the previous one day record of donations by raising 11.7M. This more than doubles what he had raised the entire quarter so far."

That was 500k. Nice... 12 million here we come.

Ron Paul may even beat Hillary & Obama this quarter.

Don't forget that Q4 usually is lower for donations because candidates are out campaigning instead of fundraising.

Since Ron Paul doesn't have to fundraise (It's spontaneous), he can campaign full time and pull in more than everyone.
