1 Million by Midnight? - Bets! - total at midnight EST

[tangent4ronpaul]

Seems like we've been doing better than $100,000 an hour - and there are 6 hours left in the day. We just broke half a mil...

My guess is 1.15 Million.

Amen!

All this money is going to create a STRONG war chest for our boy!

 

[tangent4ronpaul]

That is a very nice slope!

Out of curiosity, does he get to use the leftover for presidential election after the primary?

 

[TruthAtLast]

I'm up for it. Come on people!

I've donated $100 so far today and will likely donate another $100 later since I just found out that I'm maxed on the Presidential campaign.

 

[tangent4ronpaul]

Amen!

He's going to need 2.5 Mil +

Maybe less - he's frugal, but that's about what' he's spent on past campaigns.

Thank you very much for your donation of $101.00 to the Committee to Re-Elect Ron Paul.

If thats the case, why would he put a figure like $650k on his flash page as the goal?

I WAS COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY WRONG.
I am stunned that this is raising the money it is. I'm very happy to see it.
I love being wrong like this.....
I had predicted 50k day.
Amazing...amazing...
Wolf, where are U?

He does that with the prez page too - picks a goal and then puts benchmarks on the thermometer that increment (normally) after they are passed. Expect them to put a new one up there. But it does give us something to work toward and seems more attainable than some huge number. We enjoy crossing those boundaries.
