When will the campaign REALLY start?

I'm down here in Alabama, All I hear are crickets.
We don't control the message, we don't control the tempo, and we are absent from the mainstreame media.

if this continues we will lose.

We need a catch phrase, something to take it back from the party leadership. The clock is ticking, if our message was out infront of voters with no name attached, we would win by a landslide.

we need to first, get our message back, second take on the GOP leadership, then get ready to take on the dems.

The race will start for real when RP goes third party or independent.

Until then, we will continue embarrassing and weakening these war-mongers, not to mention picking up hundreds of thousands of supporters who will be with us in the general election.

 

[New York For Paul]

The campaign is almost over. The media is trying to anoint a winner, and we are not even close or mentioned.

In Michigan we are swamped with Romney, Huckabee, and McCain ads. No Ron Paul. Many people are not voting for Ron Paul because they say he doesn't have a chance. When they see 5th place in primaries, she will confirm their suspicions and vote for someone else. Without marketing, people will continue to vote based on meida, polls and primaries.

Good point, lots of people like his ideas [the message], but don't consider him electable. He needs victories, not 2nd or 3rd+ place finishes. He also needs to deal with the Newsletter scandal, quickly, before it sinks the boat. For good or ill they have decided NV is the place, it's an all or nothing shot, if he doens't come in #1 in NV it's pretty much over. I disagree with the plan, but I sure hope it works.

Although i thought he was winning the straw poll in Alabamy. Even in winter you have crickets????

All this trusting that the Campaign HQ knows what it's doing unnerves me a bit. Also it appears that Ron has a strong sense of fidelity which means he would stick with his campaign people even if they weren't great... Maybe they have got some great Stonewallian strategy up ahead to confound everyone with but to be honest, after seeing the caliber of the UTube potential ads coming from Grassroots and when I compare it with the sentimental bilge the Campaign HQ churns out....I am worried.

What a tragedy it would be if this failed because of HQ not being aggressive enough. Although the odds are stacked against us what with a corrupt media and powerful corporate interests.
