Pro-Paul super PAC pumps $1.4M into Florida ads

[RickyJ]

These guys are spending a ton of money. No clue where they're getting it from, but it's awesome.

Yeah it is awesome. Obviously Paul has some rich supporters.

This group is rather obscure and seems to have social media marketing roots.

Their treasurer is Abe Niederhauser in Utah, attended BYU and Society of Actuaries, and someone named Chris Hanson

They have now spent almost 5million in support on Ron Paul?

HAHA! Wouldn't that be funny.. Still curious who these people are, and where the money is coming from.

Not sure if anyone else noticed that the narrator used in EndorseLiberty's ad's (especially the one on their website) is the same voice used in RevPAC's "Armed Chinese Troops in Texas" web ad. Perhaps this could get us a little closer to the identity of these guys and there connections to the Liberty Movement and other Paul Super PACS.

They should really have a direct link to the grassroots by creating an account on RPF so we can give them some input (yelling and screaming and/or passive aggressive neg reps and vote downs) on their commercials. Perhaps I'll email them and tell them to do that right now.

Omg! That's awsome they are speading that much, but why florida? Winner takes all. Could have used that in the caucus states.

 

[steph3n]

they had spent 3.1 million as of the end of year, another 1.4+ since then. There is little info as to who they are, if they are a large group or a couple people, but it is very nice. FL is a lost cause to win, but the name recognition is important.

LOL. Who the hell are you to tell them anything? Have you donated to the PAC?

They have actual MARKETING PEOPLE as founders of the PAC.

 

[brendan.orourke]

The only way this will actually be good for us, though, is if they're pumping like $5 million into the caucus states.

I hear everybody, including the official campaign, saying this same thing, but look at how that's gone so far:

New Hampshire PRIMARY

2nd place
56,872
23%

Iowa CAUCUS
3rd place
26,036
21%

 

[RonPaulMyPresident]

Thank you Endorse Liberty !

Ron Paul 2012 !!!!

 

[SurfsUp]

Why?

They should focus on NV. MINN. MAINE COLORADO etc....

Great that they r doing it, but misplaced.

^^This.

Louisiana too please.

 

[LawnWake]

This is good. We can't afford to have another last place in the eyes of the media. Or it's better if we don't. Let the campaign and grassroots focus elsewhere, but if they wanna take on Florida and bump his numers a little, by all means go ahead.

 

[alucard13mmfmj]

i guess its necessary to spend this money to make sure santorum comes in last. that is important right now. to make dwindle down the number of candidates as fast as possible.

 

[The_Ruffneck]

if it helps us get into third it's money well spent IMO

 

[affa]

What a complete waste. Every dollar spent in Florida could be put to good use in caucus states. Who are these idiots???

very, very rich, obviously. rich enough that i don't think this will hold them back from doing things in caucus states.

i find it ridiculous that you'd insult people so obviously doing their best for the cause of liberty.

they're awesome. period. and their millions of dollars are doing far more for the cause of liberty than you bitching about how they spend it is.

 

[pao]

If Dr. Paul comes in a strong 3rd in Florida because of these efforts (not to mention pushing Santorum aside and perhaps out of future states), this can only help with the public impression and truth that Ron Paul is gaining momentum with the public on the national level, and will help him as the election unfolds. This is a good thing...And, as others have said, if they have money for this...they will have money for other projects in Dr. Paul's future contests.

With apologies to Travie Mccoy:

I wanna be a billionaire, so fxxkin bad...
Start my own Super Pac, get ads on the air
Spreading the cause of liberty
from sea to shining sea

 

[Feeding the Abscess]

I'm completely fine with PACs doing work in primary states while the official campaign puts apparatus in caucus states. The whole point of PACs is to hit areas the official campaign isn't, right? This is division of labor in action.
