Hello,
I just sent out a comment to the ronpaul2008 site people that they should look into changing the donation total on the front page to a different measure - either as a daily total, the past week, month, etc. My reasoning is assuming Paul places third or better in Iowa, there will be 'coverage' about him. If the news orgs see the counter on the front page at $60-70k for the quarter, they will all grab that screenshot and use it to skew coverage negatively. However, if it shows this week's total, for example, of $400-500k, it would portray him in a stronger light. What do you guys think?
