They covered the first moneybomb because they thought it was a quirky novelty...now they know that we are doing them partly to gain MSM attention, and they don't feel like giving it to us. The MSM can't make the transition from seeing RP as a "quirky novelty" to seeing him as a "legitmate frontrunner" so they have no choice but to marganizle the amazing, historic tea party.

I mean, its nuts--we break ALL TIME fundraising records, WITHOUT CENTRAL CAMPAIGN COORDINATION, and we just get a few mentions here and there. F*ckin tools.

The MSM only makes money when played. That would be like banks tired of making money.

What I'm trying to say is that THEY think that we are only doing this to get coverage. So they don't feel like giving it to us.

MSM-"A thousand mainstream media outlets descend upon you! Our lies will blot out your campaign!"
Ron Paul-"...then we will raise more money."

We need to change course. Fund raising is good but we need something new.

They are no longer the Mainstream Media. They are totally out of the main stream of current events and American politics. They are the Old Media.

The MSM knows he is a danger. That is why they don't report. It's not that they can't come to terms with it or some crap like that.

I think fund raising is important, and, I think the change of course is translating the moneybombs to votebombs. We need to ensure that we win the first round of primaries, period.

I think we should wait until the evening news.

Though we will get some media coverage tomorrow, I told you guys that they wouldn't care. This is particularly why I don't watch.

Here is a summary of the Tea Party coverage in the MSM...

"And now from the wild and wacky side of politics, Ron Paul had a Tea Party fund raising event and broke his own record. Unfortunately, these fund raisers are not translating into support for his campaign. Now moving onto other news..."

More than a few poster are insisting that this story only needs a day or two and will become a major story on the news outlets. I think they are deluding themselves.

I must agree, America is no longer dependent upon the paper and the evening news.

I'm highly doubtful we will get more media coverage tomorrow.
