Has anyone heard Kucinich's numbers?
I don't think he got ANY press for his money bomb.

I'm wondering the same thing. His site doesn't track donations. His was yesterday, I think the anniversary of the signing of the Bill of Rights.
He only raised around 100 grand. I kinda feel bad for the guy.
LOL, at least the guy is trying to shake up the democratic debate, though I'm against most of his ideas (ie: Gun Control, Socialized Medicine) he is more successful at it than Gravel.
BUMP
Hey Mark Mosconi,

You know, today would be a good day to be on tv, with the huge snowstorm up here (I'm in Maine) everyone's stuck inside watching tv.

It's all pagentry. Someone said "you're IT Huck" and he gets pushed to the center of the fire... It's frustrating now, but I think it works to have Ron Paul underestimated at this point in the game.. Half full, folks, half full.

Huck better shut up before people start listening to what he is saying. HAHA. Talk about the WORST candidate to battle Hitlery.
Anyone seeing his name on tv?
On RonPaul2008.com last night, under the "scheduled events" menu on the left... it said that CBS Evening News was scheduled to be at RP campaign headquarters tonight.
Presumably to do a "live" remote segment on the TeaParty money bomb.
1:04 PM EST: Fox News is talking about the fundraising. Finally! Only about a minute long, they still rip on him for poll numbers.
Is anyone else watching the spread start to happen on the Nov 5th vs Dec 16th total donors graph? Are we going exponential?

That'd be great!
Of Course.
Well he was on Fox at least

This isn't news until it is over. Same thing with November 5th, the reporting of the event occurred on the 6th.
I just finished extrapolating the graph, and at the present degree of angular divergence from the 5th of November event, we'll finish today at around $6.25 million.
$3 million for the day in about 30-40 minutes, $4 million around 3 hrs after that... and so on.
Well, I e-mailed all of my local stations (Fox 6, NBC 4, ABC 12, CBS 58) and the local paper (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel)! :-)
I'm assuming that they are completely ignorant, and might need to have the 'human interest' aspect pointed out to them.
This is what I sent:
Hello!
Today Ron Paul's supporters are trying to break their record of 4.3 million raised on November 5th!
-----------------------------
Huntington, WV (HNN) – Never underestimate the popularity of an underdog with cross-generational, not to mention, cross-party appeal. Republican Presidential Candidate, Dr. Ron Paul is that underdog. And he has been underestimated.
But the Texas representative’s supporters caught the eye of many, including the mainstream media after an Internet fundraiser organized by grass-roots supporters, called the Money Bomb, netted $4.4 million on November 3, 2007.
Now, Paul devotees have another 24-hour Internet money bomb to drop. This one they're calling a Tea Party after the infamous Boston Tea Party.
Based on the first couple of hours of giving, the previous amount was apparently only the beginning, rather than a tech grassroots anomaly, as many in the mainstream media had asserted.
During the Nov. 5 fundraiser, it took nearly seven hours to raise $500,000. This morning, one half a million dollars had been raised by 1:20 a.m.
This pace of donations indicates a new one-day fund raising record for any candidate in United States' history is in the offing.
The campaign had set a goal of $12 million by December 31 to win in New Hampshire, Iowa, Michigan, South Carolina and Nevada.
The campaign has already surpassed that goal. The Paul supporters reached $12,380,000 by 3:20 a.m. Sunday.
Paul initially served in Congress during the late 70s and early 80s. In 1976, he and three other Republicans were the only Republican congressmen to endorse Gov. Ronald Reagan for President. After voluntarily relinquishing his seat in 1984 to return to his medical practice. He's an ob-gyn. Dr. Paul returned to Congress in 1997 to represent the 14th Texas Congressional District.
Dr. Paul has never voted for a tax increase, never voted for an unbalanced budget, and never voted for federal restrictions on gun ownership. In addition, he’s not voted to raise congressional pay or taken a government paid junket, according to his record. He's a small government conservative who says he simply does not vote for anything not authorized by the constitution.
Despite heavy pressure to follow the majority, Paul voted against the Patriot Act, against Internet regulation and against the Iraq War.
You can watch the money pour in to the Paul campaign coffers, updated every minute at http://www.Ronpaul2008.com
