It's about 4.2 million for the day so far. Stay up to date.

Yeah... What Tom said :)
Fox News just had this story posted at 11:20, then promptly removed it. I have a print screen of the article hailing the Paul camp's 4.2 million dollar triumph!

And it keeps going up every minute. I wouldn't be surprised if Paul reaches 15 to 20 million by the end of the 4th quarter.

End corporate welfare. Stop policing the world. Respect the Bill of Rights. Stop the inflation monster. No more preemptive wars!

Vote for Ron Paul!

I am so proud of you Dr. Paul! You remind me of my dear Grandpa who fought for this country and for my freedom. I come from a military family and support Ron Paul for President. He has inspired me to become involved in my community, city, and state! It is important to understand why our country is so unique. The fact that cities and states can be autonomous from the federal government is radical! Since hearing Ron Paul's message I have decided to run for city council in my town next year.
You are an inspiration!
God Bless you Ron Paul! You are so brave!

Remember remember the fifth of November
The media's treason and plot.
I see no reason the media's treason
should ever be forgot.

I wonder how the mainstream media (especially fox news) is going to try to brush this accomplishment off in the next couple of days. I'm sure they will try to say the numbers aren't real.

That's right mainstream media.

Would you guys start treating Dr Paul with some respect now and discuss his policies in an intelligent and informed manner rather than blowing him off as some kind of moonbat and throwing juvenile remarks at his campaign?

The people have spoken and they're tired of big corrupt government and they're tired of lazy journalism.

I will remember this November 5th as a magnificent day. Ron Paul, raised over $4.3 million in one day contributions from over 38,000 supporters to bring his total Q4 contributions to over $7.1 million.

Ron Paul is #1 in the straw polls and all internet polls. He will soon be #1 in votes as well, but he will never be #1 in the manipulated telephone polls.

I believe 38,000 people gave money for freedom, liberty, peace and prosperity. The Ron Paul R[EVOL]UTION is NOW!

Note that the Huckabee campaign took down their realtime donations graphic out of embarrassment today.

The groundswell of support is just beginning. What the 'mainstream' media fail to understand about this phenomenon is that it's about the *message* more than the messenger. Dr. Paul is a wonderful person, don't get me wrong. But it's the message he's delivering that is setting the public's imagination on fire! Just imagine - a government that actually follows the Constitution!

It's not too late to take back America. If you haven't donated, it's not too late. Get to ronpaul2008.com and give what you can. If you've already donated, see if you an scrape up a little more. Even if it's just $5, you really can make a difference!

I am SICK of the American people being used as 'useful idiots' , manipulated by BOTH parties. They constantly dip out of the same cup and present us with 'choices' from the same pot of swill. (sigh!)

I am voting against the WAR. We Democrats got in last election and consequently FUNDED the surge. Good Lord! Nancy Pelosi even tabled the Bush impeachment initiative (but it's still ALIVE!) I don't trust ANY of them!

I want us OUT of Iraq. I want our Country to stop doing the bidding of Big Business married to Big Government.

Stop being a good Democrat. Stop being a good Republican. Start being a good American.

I'm voting to get out of Iraq and Israel and the whole damn Middle East.

I'm voting to get out of Korea.

I'm voting to get out of NATO.

I'm voting to bring ALL our troops home and protect our own borders and stop the stampede. Our country is going BROKE and we can't afford this.

I'm voting for Ron Paul whose been against this thing from the very start, and against alot of other things as well. The media (corporate) will try and paint him as a racist or a kook but just do your OWN homework.

Nobody explains Ron Paul better than Ron himself. Do your own homework. You can listen here (thank God they can't control the internet...YET!)

Guy Fawkes day is celebrated because the guy fought corruption in government, and won the support of the people for it.
Media needs to stop twisting this, it's about freedom, it's about the people being in charge, it's about getting corruption out of government.
It's a revolution! Join us!

Ron Paul has, simply, come out and told people what he believes. Outside of his congressional earmarks, his voting record, pretty much reflects his views. The result is an outpouring of trust, for no other reason than these folks simply trust him.

This is what we would like others to believe is the true face of Neoconservatism. Neoconservatives, were born of LIBERALS in the 1960s! That's why they are branded NEO-conservatives.

Ron Paul is, essentially, a true conservative, at least in so many ways!

Now, compare that to the bundling, greasy, lousy resume'd, duplicitous snake that married a touchy-feely, womanizing, juvenile, lazy dilatante, and backed his play at every turn, THEN hired every one of his greasy cronies to help HER do the same.

Now, go finde me ONE person who would trust what SHE says in the same way others trust Ron Paul.
