Rand Paul Blimp Planning Committee

[Jordan]

How about a TV ad?

 

[erowe1]

ya wanna win this thing?

Forget the Rand Paul blimp and fly a "Trey Grayson was a Clinton delegate" blimp...or airplane banner

Hang Clinton around Grayson's neck and conservative Kentucky GOP will never vote for him.

If this race assumes a "civil tone" and becomes about "high taxes and spending", we'll lose again. ...People are simple minded.

You must find your opponents weak spot and squeeze relentlessly. If Grayson has to constantly explain why he supported Clinton...and why he is affilaited with left wing Aspen Humanist Society....he is toast.

The problem with this is that, unless you know something nobody else here knows, Grayson wasn't a Clinton delegate.

I would have rather seen the money spent on more radio and television ads ..not a BLIMP. that was a money pit! The radio ads we got for Ron Paul in my town were ones our meet up group paid for and ran on Talk radio. I think it hurt Ron Paul to not have more radio and television. tones

I agree that radio ads sound like a promising use of $.

Here's an article from August 2007 advising Ron Paul to focus on radio in New Hampshire that I thought argued the case well:

Radio Ads

We need some grassroots PACS and groups to make their own radio ads not affiliated with the Campaign.

That's a much better use of funds.

C. Kentucky recognizes Hot-air balloons more than it does blimps. I live in KY and know that a lot of people watch the hot-air balloon race that is a part of the KY Derby every year. The Derby next year will also coincide with the KY Senate Primary which happens on May 10th. (Derby starts the first week of May.) A hot-air balloon in late April/early May would be perfect I think. Maybe we could even get his balloon to be part of the race!

a hot air balloon would be so awesome and be soooo relevant

i have no clue what it would cost, though

Liberty PAC (Ron's PAC) can endorse candidates and give them money and run ads right? And it got most of Ron's extra money from the campaign, thats millions!

Lololol. I'm starting to like the hot air balloon idea. All it needs is the right signage.

This hot air balloon is powered by the U.S. Senate

Help stop Senate hot air global warming. Elect Rand Paul

hot air balloon is a good idea. blimp is not

 

[Michigan11]

You gotta love the chaos in these threads on the blimp!

 

[scandinaviany3]

hah I can say that if Rand spent any of his campaign funds on renting a blimp, I would drive to KY and demand my donation back in person.

agreed...
