Ron Paul will raise more than Thompson in Q4. [/ QUOTE ] Not counting Romney's self donations, he'll probably outraise every Republican. Giuliani only had 10.5 mil in the 3rd quarter.

Re: ***Official Ron Paul video thread***
I've watched about 10 random 1 minute updates, and the smallest one I've seen was $3500.
The largest was almost $7000. A MINUTE. That's crazy.

But does ANYONE think this pace will continue? You have to remember that today was supposed to be a big dumping day for Paul. I suspect a lot of people (who might give monthly) combine both October and November to today's big push. It would be interesting to see depth/breadth numbers (how many people are giving, how many are close to capping out, what is the growth rate of the number of different contributors, etc.)

Hillary picked up quite a lot of press for her 1.5 million $ birthday fund raiser and Paul has a shot at doubling that today. The kind of coverage he can get for this could be worth a million or two in itself and could bring in many new contributers to replace those who are tapped out after today.

I think the only ones who think THIS pace will continue are the ones who have no idea what is causing this mad push. However, I think the result will be bigger contributions for the remainder of the quarter thanks to the increased exposure this fund raising effort will bring. 2 million spread out over 2 weeks is not news. $2 million in a day will make some headlines......and money follows money.

Re: ***Official Ron Paul video thread***
They raised about $1m from eight to noon, and the pace has stayed steady that whole time. $3m today seems almost guaranteed.

Re: ***Official Ron Paul video thread***
John Kerry holds the record for one day with $5.6 million! Paul won't reach that, but $3 million today is very possible and he will pass $5 million for the quarter within minutes. He will surpass his Q3 total of $5.2 million within the next hour! I think $6 million overall is a reasonable estimate. It'll die off at some point though.
