Ron Paul Rakes In The Geek Green
“Gooooood Morning you Dot Coms! Send money.”
He probably won’t get the nod, but you have to hand it to the moonbats for coming out in droves and using Paypal. If there is anything intelligent to be gleaned from the Ron Paul campaign, I would think it would be the utilization of Geeks, en masse.
From a Jeanne Cummings article on Politico.com:
Ron Paul may not win his party’s primary, but he is on track to capture another big title: top Republican fundraiser for the final quarter of the money-obsessed 2008 presidential primary.
In the first two months of the quarter that began Oct. 1, Paul already has raised more than $9.75 million, putting him easily within range to best the amount rival Mitt Romney received from donors during the entire third quarter.
The Texas congressman has set a goal of raising $12 million before the fourth quarter’s Dec. 31 deadline, a sum New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani couldn’t achieve in the third quarter when fundraising events still dominated his schedule.
Paul’s chief e-bundler, music promoter Trevor Lyman, hopes to raise $2.5 million by day’s end with the campaign’s second online money bomb - though initial indications were that this latest fundraising move would fall well short of its target.
Of course, Romney can still buy the fourth quarter title by making a multimillion-dollar donation to himself, which is widely expected.
And it could be that Paul’s striking, eleventh-hour surge may have come too late to dramatically change the campaign dynamics.

the ‘republican’ McGovern, has atleast half of his support from non-republicans(traditional McGovernites, leftist/libs, anarchist and conspiracy theorist, Communist sympathizers and Neo-Nazi’s)…..so if he runs 3rd party, might not hurt GOP too bad
