From Ron Paul Headquarters Frontpage Website

Yesterday was a remarkable day for Ron Paul, and it wouldn’t have happened without you. For those of you who haven’t yet heard, Ron Paul took over 10% in yesterday’s Iowa caucus, handily beating Rudy Giuliani and finishing right behind both Fred Thompson and John McCain. This despite that Rudy Giuliani made more visits to Iowa than Ron Paul. And, entrance polls showed that Ron Paul took first place (29%) among independent Republicans!

This campaign is just beginning, and we are starting off better than anyone in the “mainstream” media imagined.

Back in February 2007, no one gave Ron Paul any chance to succeed in this race. Ron Paul did not have the name recognition of other candidates, nor the financial resources. Essentially, Ron Paul started at a level of 0% in all 50 states.

But then, as we know, something started to happen. Americans started to hear this message of freedom, and began to galvanize behind the cause. It’s no small feat that we brought in 10% yesterday in Iowa, a double-digit turnout that has brought a lot of commentary – even from Fox News!

Just last night, Greta van Sustern had this to say:

"Ten per cent is not insignificant - that's a huge number. Here you have a candidate that 10 per cent of the people caucused in his party really want him and it's not like he's an insignificant player. He didn't just drop in yesterday to the process, he has been running for president for a long time, and certainly many of the issues he's raised are rather provocative and certainly stimulate the debate; that's not a bad thing."

This election is just getting started. It’s time to mobilize and do what needs to be done. It’s time to win the most important election of our lifetime.

I do believe some here set the bar too high. Then, when he did not win big time, those people became discouraged. 10% is great. Remember the powers that be first gave our messeanger a zero chance. This is the first primary. Many more to come.

We all know what we were and are up against. Take your frustration and turn it into positive energy. Do what it takes with the amount of funds you have available to give Ron Paul exposure yourself.

Volunteer when you see thoses who come here and ask for help with handwritten letters to send to voters in a particular state.

Call voters on the phone and canvas door to door in your area.

Join a meetup/start up a meetup in your area.

Make homemade signs and set them up in legal areas.

Burn and pass out Ron Paul videos.

Remember, approx. $20m is peanuts when considering all ways the campaign must spend the money. I would assume the money is going fast. We are not rich and everyone seems to have a suggestion on how the money should be spent.

We will do great in NH. Just like we did in Iowa. I do believe Nevada will be even greater.

We need another Money Bomb before the end of January. The holidays are over and we will being receiving paychecks so we should have money to fund another bomb. I just wish we would have another theme besides MLK theme. But, I will donate even if this theme is chosen (the reason being, it gets to the media and I can see them using racist lies, if you get my point).

Please don't get discouraged. This battle is just beginnings. 10% is great when you consider the odds against Ron Paul at the starting gate. .....Go Seabiscuit Go......
