From the article:
"About half of his total came from contributions of less than $200."

200*6,000= 1.2 mil, so there are at least 6,000 contributors.

I can't wait until his face is on the front page. That will be a big sign of victory.

This is very good news.

It's only a matter of time until they start putting quotes around "long shot". Actually, I think I already saw a MSM article that did just that. Can't recall. Too many Ron Paul articles flooding the web :) Once the quotes are added, it's only a matter of time until the entire "long shot" disappears.

PS Is Paul now the official "frontrunner" of the second-tier candidates?

Romney donated $9 mill of his own money to his campaign lol...in other words, over half of his contributions came from...him

AP - 4 minutes ago
WASHINGTON - Democrat John Edwards increased his cash on hand this quarter despite a drop in contributions for his presidential nomination campaign, according to financial reports he was to file Sunday.

How can the Edwards story be the 2nd most viewed article within 12 minutes of it being posted.

I like how you can't even find the RP article anymore.

Yahoo is fucking lame.

They changed the story and merged the Ron Paul story into a John Edwards story

Wow that was quick!!!! They know how to hustle!!!!

ps - Yahoo is the worst media outlet against Ron Paul. Hopefully this is evidence enough of how bad they are.

Wow. It's gone. If you were to go to Yahoo right now, you would find absolutely NOTHING relating to Ron Paul.

If you go to Ron Paul's profile on Yahoo!, there's a link to the original story about him. If you go to that link, it will take you to the original story, however it's mirrored with the John Edwards story. If you rank the John Edwards story 1 star, then go to the Ron Paul story, you will see you have also ranked that story 1 star. It's weird, almost. Totally blatant.

Yea, they merged the stories. They counted all the Ron Paul article ratings towards the new article. I don't want the new article rated 5 stars for my vote. :mad:

Did Rupert Murdoch ever gain a large portion of Yahoo? I heard about this in June on Bill Moyers Journal:

and in this article:
