Ron Paul blimp needs $70000 by tomorrow!

[RPSignbomb]

$70,000 buys you over 2.3 million impressions on TV in a two week period. $70,000 lets the blimp fly for few extra days. (per spotrunner.com)

What would you rather spend your money on? Over 1000 TV spots or a blimp flying over corn fields???????

The blimp is getting free YouTube viewings nationwide. 70K worth of TV will reach a much smaller audience.

Flying over traffic day and day out makes the blimp noticed. We notice the Goodyear blimp everytime around here.

I'd MUCH rather to have the money go to the Blimp operator, a Ron Paul supporter himself, and his crew than any MSM media.

Are people on crack? This isn't about some RP supporter, but getting RP's message out to the MASSES, and TV, radio, newspapers, and canvassing should be where the money is spent!! You can't see and/or hear RP and his message from the blimp!!!

This is a complete waste. Mitt Romney would be spending money on a blimp if it was a great success, he has the dough but that's not what he's doing!!!

Tell me, what is the average age of a "you tube" watcher? I'm betting it's not voting age. Prove me wrong with facts, please.

Yes, because the thing we need is MORE internet supporters....not the voting masses over the age of thirty that have never even HEARD of youtube.

/sarcasm, in case you couldn't tell.

Some people are on the blimp gravy train and some people are worshiping a cult of personality.

Whoever says give $70,000 to a bag off hot air instead of paying for thousands of ads is suspect.

There's no way in the world the blimp is seen by more people than those many hours of TV commercials.

And it's brings NOTHING to the campaign except a played out novelty.

How many more percentage points would we have had in NH if we had $500,000 more to spend on boots on the ground and ads???

It's a WASTE people. It's cost us a world of a lot more than it's been worth!

PLUS: There are just two lousy sentences on the Blimp.

NOTHING about the Issues whatsoever - while an Ad
actually contains 100 times more information.

There is no reason to think about the better and more
economic choice for one second.

YouTube? Internet? Are you serious?

I'm beginning to wonder who you are, this is INSANE. People, please donate to the campaign, and help support local ads in your area, as well as near primary state ad efforts if you can. And Canvass away!!

The same people who come on and have been pushing it all along. The ones that PROFIT from it.

And it's NOT anyone that cares more about the campaign.

It would be nice if the blimp stayed afloat until Super Tuesday but they always need funds before money bombs.. urgh

It's all about their ego and pockets now. They are using Tea Party and Nov. 5th e-mail databases to pimp their business with total disregard to HQ donations. My advice is.... GIVE TO RON PAUL ... Not someone trying to make a name for themselves.

That's exactly what's happening.......send money to the CAMPAIGN!!!

Nobody is PROFITING from the blimp.

I just heard Blimpette on JustinTV saying that she's losing weight and working lots lots of hours for the blimp. (for next to nothing)

Wait till you see the SC results. Normally that state should have been pretty bad for Ron Paul. If he pulls a 10%, you can credit the blimp.

If he gets 4%, then the blimp didnt' work.

 

[RonRules]

We need a variety of media to promote this cause.

Compared to two months ago, I'm almost never asked "Who is Ron Paul?" anyore, yet I have not seen a SINGLE TV commercial for Ron Paul around here.

People now come to talk to me and ask for extra info about Ron Paul.

The signs, the sign wavings, and the 70% of the US population on the internet has passed along the message.

I'm not against TV commercials, we need them, but the blimp has it's place.

 

[pacelli]

Here is the total that Ron Paul's campaign has raised since New Years as of this moment:

$870,000. That isn't much right now

Its too bad today's moneybomb was a dud.

And if he gets 30%, all the TV and Newspaper Ad's
we didn't finance, did work. Thanks to the Blimp.

Go lick the blimp teams boots if you have such a crush, you'll find them staying at Hilton's and Omni's while Dr. Paul stays at the Best Western. Who do you think is paying for that??????????????? PEOPLE WHO DONATE!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[MayTheRonBeWithYou]

Let's not diss the blimp people. Let's get them motivated to do new projects - maybe grassroots ads on TV, radio, or something new and creative. The blimp has had it's day.

 

[devil21]

Yeah, count me in the "blimp has past its prime" group. It was a neat toy to fire us up and get some attention to RP but now the money needs to go to ads or the campaign. Time is wasting.
