Thread: Top of Drudge...

  1. #1

    Top of Drudge...

    Spin spin spin http://www.drudgereport.com/

    The media will stop paying attention to Ron completely in a few days after this is out of the news cycle. Terrible move from Benton in my opinion. If you're going to do this, you have to know this would be the reaction. And if you're going to do this, make some kind of press conference so the words can come straight out of Ron's mouth and be harder to spin + get some national media recognition for some liberty positions...

    Drudge is a tool. Nothing has been posted about AZ and OK. And he jumps on that and spins it?

    When they come after Drudge for his in-kind contributions to the Romney campaign, I will keep silent.

    • Did Ron himself approve the wording of that email?
    • Did anyone remind Ron he had promised people he would stay in?

    Even if the media is spinning this, if you're the Ron Paul campaign, what the $#@! did you expect? The email should've been worded more clearly. Benton has run an atrocious campaign.

  22. #19
    This is NOT the first time the campaign has sent out an email in which the wording is ambiguous. I mean, they KNOW the media will jump on this..... they know this.. so they could have stressed... STRESSED!! "BECAUSE money is tight, we will be focusing on securing delegates at the local level. WE ARE NOT SUSPENDING THIS CAMPAIGN! But funds are limited and we are handing the establishment fear on a silver platter. They are afraid of us, because we are winning..."

    Not sure what the email is meant to do. I mean, when I read it - I DID get the impression he was suspending. THAT WAS MY FEELING! So, uhmmmm... what the $#@! did the writer think the general population would think? The Media? Something is afoot.

    Don't see how Drudge can be blamed for the incompetence of Paul's campaign people. How they hell did they expect that statement to be interpreted? For what earthly reason did they make it in the first place? If they didn't expect Drudge and the rest of the media to interpret it the way they did, then they are idiots.

    I don't think the upshot of this is all that grave though. Severing ourselves from the ineptitude of the national campaign can be a good thing. In the 1964 election, the California Goldwater folks, sick of the national campaign wasting the money they were sending them, produced their own TV buy that the national campaign had no part of. The resulting ad (Ronald Reagan's "A Time For Choosing" or more commonly referred to as simply "The Speech") had a greater impact than the entire sum of the National Campaign's advertising effort. Never forget that the movement belongs to us, not some bumbling campaign staff. Freed of the burden of contributing to the national campaign, we can direct our moneybomb to someone who could actually do something positive with it.

    Can't really blame Drudge for this. That email was poorly worded. I'm pretty pissed right now. Benton just made our jobs 1000 times harder. Not only do we have to double down on our efforts in remaining contests, but now we need to convince soft support he's not officially "out." Id' like to hear from Ron himself on this. Is anything on the campaign schedule? What about all that time/money in Texas and California? I'm feeling pretty ripped off right now.

    No really. Benton has done this before.

    He's a secret insider for the media.

    Remember when he made that quote about handing our guys over to Romney in exchange for Rand on the ticket? And now he does this, yeah right. He's a shill.

    The email statement is up on the campaign site with his "signature". This is Ron speaking officially. As far as events, there is one scheduled - he is speaking at the MN GOP convention. That's it.

    It takes a lot of cash to keep things running and eventually the money runs out.

    I'm done with Ron Paul. If he was not suspending his campaign this was the dumbest press release in the history of politics. If he was suspending his campaign then $#@! him. I've been giving money and time for him to drop out before our election here in Texas. $#@! THAT.

    The statement tees up forthcoming information the campaign will release concerning its fruitful delegate-attainment strategy still occurring at delegate-selection events such as state conventions ahead of the Republican National Convention in Tampa.
