…that means that down the road other candidates will copy this.

Does that mean that we could see 5 or 6 blimps in Blimp Wars over some tightly contested primary city? It’d be like a giant slow-motion multi-opponent Sumo match. Popcorn!

The blimp is already getting some media attention. If it were to fly, it might generate a heap more. (Do I think it will fly? Oh, I do, I do. I've learned not to doubt the Paulites. Or Paulinistas, Paulbots, Paulunteers, or whatever else you'd like to call them.)
The world will know by midnight tonight if enough money has been collected to launch the airship next week. If these maniacs pull it off, I'll be up there in the blimp's gondola as we fly to D.C., where we'll likely find a furious Dick Cheney in his duck-hunting hat, firing his shotgun at the massive craft.
I'll be filing a long story in RADAR Magazine about this weird aerial campaign launched by people with no actual connection to Ron Paul's campaign. What will it all mean? Will every presidential candidate be forced to compete by launching their own terrible airships? Will Mitt Romney just pull out his checkbook and buy the moon?
