Blimp Going Down in Flames!!!

Renegotiate the price. The Blimp company has gotten a ton of free publicity and should be giving us a better deal or else we need to find a more appreciative company.

That is a negotiated price. The owner is a Ron Paul supporter and gave us a 30% discount, if I remember the original price correctly.
 
Curious to know, how is the weather out where it is flying?

Do you think people will even see it?

I'm not sure staying the course with this is a good idea to be honest. We should see how effective it has been so far then see if we need to it keep flying.

I say email the campaign and start spending some of the money our own polls or something else.

The Media Value of the Blimp

BTW, this information has been posted twice in this thread already. It's usually a good idea to at least read a thread before you comment on it, it may provide valuable information. :D
 
Personally, I would love to see the blimp overhead in New Hampshire while we’re canvassing. I think it would help us cut through the political-overload of New Hampshire residents and cheer us on!!
 
Has the Blimp actually gotten any press coverage?

I have seen stories about the Goodyear blimp in major media, but nothing on the Ron Paul Blimp. One day I was watching TV and they mentioned being invited to take a ride in a Blimp. I started to think..wait, could it be? Nope. They did a story about getting a ride in the goodyear Blimp, showing the launch and everything. looked kinda like the RP Blimp youtubes.

Some of these are Ron Paul stories, some are Ron Paul stories that mention the blimp and some are blimp stories that mention Ron Paul:

Umm... look up, like 6 posts before yours. See the post about Media Value of the Blimp??????????????????

You can lead a horse to water, but if he won't look down to see the stream...
 
The failure will look like this

Is that her "O" face?
 
Here is what I don't get. On the website it says that $250,000 dollars buys the Blimp 2.5 weeks of flight time. It has been up for merely a few days, how does this equals to two and a half weeks?
 
No offense but the guys running this blimp thing are a little crazy.

Nice, but crazy. I still don't understand why they expect a salary.

I mean i work nearly full time for the campaign for free.

I am broke.
