No One But Paul Moneybomb - Now Officially Active

I am new to this money bomb thing but does it get better? I expect things will pick up a bit in the evening hours as more people are home, but this really is embarrassing. Even if the last 6 hours of a day match the first 18 hours, it will be just a quarter of the goal. I didn't really expect $5 million, but when I checked after getting home abut 15 minutes ago, I expected to be closing in on $1.5 million or so now.

If this doesn't pick WAY up, it pretty much ends his campaign. He simply won't have the money to do anything.

So WILL this start picking up? I just checked and see that it is going up by only about $1000 a minute which wouldn't even bring it to $1 million by the end of the day.

I think part of the problem is the site is PAINFULLY S-L-O-W. I think if they are going to have these moneybomb days, they need to make sure they have the bandwidth of handle the increased traffic.

The campaign is somewhat more main stream now when it comes to fundraising, so I wouldn't call this a campaign ender by any means. That's also why he see totals not as large as say, the Tea Party MB of '08.

Dr. Paul is also extremely economical when it comes to campaign expenditures. Of course, I'd like to see it much higher to help put ads out in Super Tuesday states!

what do you mean by more mainstream? aka, why aren't totals as high as 08?

My understanding (and ohters may know more) is that there are more funds coming in more often this cycle so the one day totals are not as high because just like the officially campaign tactics this year it's a marathon not a race. At least that's the perception I've gotten from comparing the things I saw in '08 with this time around.

Rachel Maddow: Ron Paul Has Something Big Up His Sleeve

Rachel Maddow is the first person among the mainstream media tv types to stumble upon the fact that Ron Paul is doing extremely well in these caucus states, and may very well have won them all or at least the majority of delegates so far via the delegate process. In this clip she basically figures it out, while Doug Wead comes on to confirm her suspicions.
