CFL staff are so incompetent.
A CFL campaign staffer failed to pay $10 per year to renew the valuable domain ronpaul2008.com and let it expire. That domain was used for Ron Paul's 2008 presidential campaign and has thousands of sites and blogs linking to it...fortunately the folks at RonPaul.com acquired it....if the domain had fallen into the wrong hands, people making a search for
Ron Paul
on Google could have been directed to a Ron Paul hater site, a porn site, etc.

Yes, we recently acquired RonPaul2008.com. The domain was previously controlled by a former Ron Paul campaign staffer who apparently abandoned it and allowed it to expire. The traffic to RonPaul.com has increased notably. In the wrong hands RonPaul2008.com could have done a lot of harm; the domain is a true search engine powerhouse that would have immediately outranked all other Ron Paul sites (including RonPaul.com). I believe we were very fortunate to find ourselves in the right place at the right time.
Thanks for your interest - you're the first (and so far the only) person to take notice.
Regards,
Tim
