"The Ron Paul blimp is set to fly from North Carolina, over Washington, New York and Boston, before heading to New Hampshire, where the Jan. 8 primary offers the iconic libertarian perhaps his best chance of translating his zealous Internet support into votes.

Like the unprecedented online fundraising behind Paul’s bid, the blimp effort, which appears on pace financially, isn’t affiliated with the official campaign and pushes traditional political conventions. "
Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    can we laugh if that blimp sinks to the ground as fast as his campaign does?

    where the hell are you getting that notion from?

    Best the news paints it is that he is skyrocketing towards the moon.

    ronpaulgraphs shows he has 4 times more money than huckabee, his youtube has ten times more subscribers than ANY candidate.

    He is getting more and more press.

    Teparty Dec 16th has TWICE as many pledges as Nov 5th did, and that pulled $4.5 mill.

    Are we going to see a $10 mil day? I don't want to jynx it,

    but seriously ... what the fuck are you talking about, "nose dive"?

    You think his exposure on The View has put him in a tailspin with all the abortion loving women of america, who prefer hillary?

    :confused:

    You know, I love the people that slam him on abortion. It really shows how excruciatingly narrow minded they are. The guy is an obgyn by profession that has personally brought about 4000 lives into this world. Ask any man how changed he is after seeing this process only once, and do get back to me.

    Abortion is a 50/50 situation....you have to pick a side...there is no "maybe" about it. If he wasn't against abortion considering the overwhelming circumstances of his daily accumulated life experience in his field of practice....good lord...I'd say he was not a human being.

    All that aside, (and this is the part they seem to miss)...he does not condone federal mandate over it. He wants it handled at the state level, so each state can choose what they want to do. This is the best of both worlds and the only solution to this unsolvable problem. It reality makes the US a better place to live. This is the only way it can be, and RP is right on the money (again), and I am pro abortion btw.

    don't watch the view nor did I see him on any other t.v. show. just from reading his website.
    it's the fact that most people that vote republican are older people. he wants to people to be able to invest their ss privately, ie stocks...which i'm sure is fine with alot of people...yet he gives no example of what back ups would be in place if their investments crash. aaand he also wants to eliminate medicare precription benefits...the old folks would see him drawn and quartered first, than vote for someone that supports that. that's two big reasons why the largest segment of republicans won't vote for him.

    I have more examples of why I and alot of people I know would never vote for him.

    RP predicting the housing bubble back in 83...

    Reel mountains upon mountains of wasteful foreign policy spending, polish up the US image internationally, and I think all these little gripes some people are having will become non issues.

    Kinda cheesy, but informative. Honesty and integrity being the underlying reality. "when you bring this many children into the world, it really stops and makes you realize what kind of world they are coming into" Very true.

    I like the suggestion to write Ron Paul's name on every dollar bill you get your hands on...after all it is only a piece of paper ;)

    The blimp is 100% paid for by GRASSROOTS SUPPORTERS.

    NOT A CAMPAIGN PURCHASE!

    100% organic, unofficial, grassroots effort!

    How many other candidates have a blimp !?!?!

    Well if you knew anything about Paul you would know that he doesn't want to eliminate it right away. For those American's already vested in these programs nothing would change. They would still receive their benefits as always. For the younger generations is where the change would occur. Also Paul has stated, several times, that the elimination of these programs was not a definite. Once in office, after he reduced spending in other areas he would see if the programs could be maintained. If so he would not eliminate them.

    THE BLIMP WILL FLY!

    They got their $200,000 that they needed by today.

    It will be IN THE AIR THIS WEEKEND!

    I think this blimp will be HUGE for Ron Paul.

    The amount of exposure he gets to real voters across the country will be so much higher than any TV ad will get him!

    And the fact that it is just a massive blimp with a name on it and a slogan that looks very radical, i think will get him a lot of google love!

    Bonus: It will b flying over OTHER candidates rallys!

    HAHA.
    You can control the AIRWAVES, but you can NOT control the AIR!

    If you honestly believe any one of those three statements, then you're more delusional than I thought. You'll get a "WTF???" and that's about all the reaction you're gonna get out of anyone.

    The media is already jockeying to get the launch, and then there's the on board reporting to be had by every network. This does more than any TV or newspaper ad could ever do several times over.
