Lets start the Tea Party at $12 million

[stilesja]

Right now we are less than $1.2 Million away from the official campaign's goal of 12 million for the quarter and are only 5 days away from the Tea Party.

Looking at the graphs donations appear to be flattening out in the recent days, but wouldn't it be great if we could re-double our efforts and get Ron to his goal of $12 million before the party and then everything that day going forward will be icing on the cake.

This is do able, and even if don't make it, it will be close. Does anyone have ideas for getting the word out?

there's nothing newsworthy about 12 million before the 16th

the 16th is what matters, many of us know how much we can afford to donate. the 16th is when it'll count for media exposure. the next 4 days are irrelevant

 

[kylejack]

No.

 

[Energy]

Wait and save it all til the 16th.

Anyone caught robbing the Tea Party in this manner will be thrown overboard, just as was done in the original Boston Tea Party.

 

[mdf1960]

Agreed--give until it hurts on the 16th.

There's still the issue of needing that money early to buy TV/Radio time. However, I think the R.P. campaign could atleast convert that money from the 16th to banners, mail ads, signs, etc.
Plus the Blimp should bring in some money if the news actually covers.

Even if the money comes in late, R.P. still can use it in the later primary states like CA, MI, and TX.

We'd get so little media attention for it that it wouldn't be worth hurting the Tea Party. They're still going to report "Ron Paul zooms past $12 million Q4 campaign goal and even his own personal expectation of $15 million... with hours to spare".

 

[freedom-maniac]

Hours to spare? Lets make it days!

Nice first post [personal attacked removed by poster to save admins the trouble]

Starting at 11 million and adding a million to Dec 16th FTW.

Me or him? You weren't very clear.

starting at $11,000,000 is easily done with no take away from the 16th. All we need to do is average 30k or so a day...... pretty average.

Anybody stealing tea from the Tea Party! You and the OP. HEAVE....HO!

 

[jrich4rpaul]

I think it's safe to say.. ignore anyone with less than 50 posts.

 

[koob]

um, how about 1.2 million more for the tea party?
