People. get a grip. It does NOT MATTER that they are out of money

Man, I'm wondering if Dr. Paul should give that same offer. Romney does the same thing(if you see the Glen Johnson scuffle with Romney and listen, it sounds like the reporters fly around on Romney's plane with him.)

Maybe he will? Wait for the other guys to go broke, then put the offer out for the last minute SURGE BEFORE Super Tuesday? That could work.

Sadly, yes.

The other candidates do get tons of mainstream press but many people don't watch the news or tune into the national media.

Remember that "all politics is local" which is why Ron Paul is the true grassroots campaign guy. It is individuals giving their time and effort who are his greatest asset.

Waving signs locally will convert more people than you think. There are many things we can do to help Ron Paul win. We don't really need the national news media.

It would be nice to get more national air time but we haven't gotten it so far and look how much we have accomplished!!!

Right now, Rudy is the ONLY one who even needs to think about dropping out. Fred is gaining steam, Huck is doing just fine getting delegates, Mittens and McCain are doing fine.

No one, even Rudy, has any reason to drop out any time before Feb. 5. Like you say, the media is giving Rudy his chance in FLA. Dunno why, but they do create the impression he has a chance to make some big come back. They've even convinced me it's possible.

So basicly, yeah, the original post is dead nutz.

EDIT: If you're still waving signs, I think you're way behind the curve. voters.ronpaul2008.com

I think it does matter. Campaigns run on money. No money equals little or no campaigning and little to no MSM air time. If you want to know how a candidate performs without spending money just take a look at Giuliani in Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada, and South Carolina. May they all go broke!

These are all good points guys, I agree. The other campaigns are much less versatile without money.

It does matter, but it does not matter 100%.
Huckabee had almost no money before the MSM suddenly catapulted him to star status, and gave him hundreds of millions of dollars of free publicity.

McCain was dead broke for months, before the MSM suddenly catapulted him to star status, and gave him hundreds of millions of dollars of free publicity.

The MSM is very powerful. Look at what propaganda through mass media did for Hitler.... Propaganda works, at least in the short term.

Unfortunately, we have a corrupt government, a corrupt media cartel, and an apathetic and ignorant population.

At least this campaign the biggest promotion of liberty that this country has seen in more than a generation. We are doing some good work, we are waking up hundreds of thousands if not millions of people, but the fight for freedom is being waged against formidable opponents, at least for the moment they are formidable.

If we have a serious dollar / stock market collapse, maybe the slumbering population will start waking up a little more quickly. I at least hope so.

If they are broke that means they will be more likely to drop out of the race, which means more potential voters for us and more air time in debates for the message to be spread. It also would mean that the MSM would have less candidates to cover and more likely hood that we would actually get some press time.

establishment chosen will never go broke.....

Its disgusting how much free publicity those neocons get from the MSM. If they gave RP a fair shake, he would have this one in the bag.

That's exactly why the MSM has blacklisted Paul.. Ron is a threat to the establishment and they want nothing to do with him.. War makes the Elite super rich.. And the elite intend to keep it that way
