I'm SO PISSED...

0 votes

Today has not been a good day.

First off, NOBODY IS DONATING. I mean, come on! What are we supposed to make, 8.4 million by February 5th? We haven't even broken 4 million!

And then MySpace are excluding Ron Paul from their debate. I bet half the people on this site could care less, and many people say we should just ignore! Well I say BS!

We need wayyyy more precinct leaders. But again, nobody is seeming to care anymore.

Now, you may say, I am generalizing everyone, or I am being pessimistic, or that everyone is trying to help and I am undermining and underappriciating everybody's efforts. I'm sure Ron appreciates everyone's efforts, but we are yet to make our goal!!!
And now, to top it all off, Ron is coming in 5th in Florida. This is bull. This is really bull. Why is today sucking so much? We need to do more.

I'm SO PISSED...we all need some positive encouragement. Why the hell isn't anyone being more active?

P.S. - I'm not normally like this, so I apologize if you think I am an idiot LOL.

I'm reluctant to attribute

I'm reluctant to attribute every negative post to trolls, but I'm convinced that many of the people that frequent this forum are either trolls or people with absolutely no stomach for politics... Next time you want to complain about Dr. Paul not automatically sweeping every contested state, head over to the Giuliani and Thompson forums and join the people who REALLY have no reason to celebrate.

It would have made absolutely no sense for Ron Paul to invest our money into a hotly contested winner-take-all state like Florida. You've got to pick your battles in this kind of race, and I think he is doing a fantastic job.

Did you forget about LA, NV and the 21 states up for grabs in a week?!

Grow some balls folks, we cant win them all.

LEAP FOR JOY that Giuliani kicked the presidential bucket tonight.

As LL would say... "You gots ta chilllll..."

Marathon... not a race.

Feb 1st Money Bomb. Should bring in some bucks.

I know our meetups in NJ have been buying ads and handing out flyers. Campaign changed their ads. I like them more.

And if you forgot... WE ARE BATTLING A BEAST!!!! It takes time and perserverance. The NWO spent decades developing this crap... it aint gonna disappear like that.

Stay positive and determined. It is a tough job waking people up. Some enjoy their slumber. It takes time.

Peace

Does my burka make my butt look fatwa?

Matching funding

This is why I have been saying so loudly that RP should take the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) funds. However majority of the people think I'm right there is this so called small majority of people and RP's camp that say no. Hey it's the money I and others put into that fund from our IRS forms for this situation. That is the money RP needs right now to win, however it appears that RP won't do it. Can lead a horse to water, but you can't make the horse drink it !!!!

There's been over 70,000

bucks donated today.........so people are donating. As for Paul not doing well in FL.........Duh? Here ,have a nice cup of reality.......It's all about strategy.......that's why Paul even said in his own video that they need to concentrate on the smaller states right now......uh, Maine? I really hope Romney pulls it out.......if he doesn't that means the establishment is going to step it up for war mongering John McCain. I love Ron Paul but I can tell you one thing...........I HATE THE GOP and ALWAYS HAVE!!! Foolish, hard headed, naive, hypocrytical........those are some good terms to use describing the GOP.

Here's some encouragement

Florida is a winner-take-all state for delegates. RP didn't have a chance to be #1 there. My guess is that the campaign put minimal resources in Florida and saved them for where RP could win. Besides, it looks like Giulinani and probably Huckabee are done! If neither Romney and McCain prevail after Super Tuesday, RP could pick up delegates from the dropouts.

All part of the plan

Ghouliani broke himself in Florida. He might well drop out of the race, now. We didn't waste any money there - instead we keep making hit and run shots at states the others ignore (NV, LA). It's a good plan. Keep your chin up.

Get in line soldier!!!

Good thing you weren't fighting back during the Revolution, or do you think that all battles were won against the British. Battles are lost all the time, we are out to win a war. Actually I'm fighting for peace. Rudy spent his whole bag of money on Florida and look where he is at. Ron Paul has spent next to nothing on and still manages to get votes. The debates are on Thursday and the real battles are on the 5th and thereafter. Do you think Rudy will even show up?

Tonight's results shouldn't

Tonight's results shouldn't deter ANYONE. Remember, RP didn't spend much time in Florida BY DESIGN.

I wouldn't be too worried about the donations. I'd imagine many of us are waiting for Feb. 1.

I feel your pain brotha...

I feel your pain brotha...

its okay honey

.......i know what your saying, its been a crumby day for me too, even got testy with my honey at one point and he is a nice guy...i sorta figured out from the buzz a while back that florida would probably go to hucklainey or thompson??????yeah right, anyhow, its the way the bullies are kicking my boy around that ticks me off....are we even worthy of Ron Paul,,,bless him........

Everyone gets frustrated at times...

but check out the official site and read the lastest news and watch the new videos. It is SOOOO early in this election. SO many variables. Who knows what might happen which would totally change this. Please trust Dr. Pau. He has run and WON many elections. He's not stupid and knows what he's doing.
The donations are worrying me too. I have made so many threads trying to point it out to people. The thing is, Huck is NOT going to drop out if he is keeping pace with RP in donations, which he is doing the last few days. He's even ahead of RP.
I don't know if everyone is holding off for the "money bombs" or what, but it is a concern. New (first time) donors are accounting for 25-30% of the donations these days.
Hang in there.

Get Over It

Patience my friend, we have only just begun...we did not want Florida.

gigione

Florida is winner take all

Only one guy gets the prize.
I believe it wasn't worth the monetary risk
However.

The money is being spent in more strategic states.

How much did the guys who came in 2nd 3rd, 4th spend?
a lot!!!

Rudy is toast..

Feel any better? :)

I think I read somewhere that Romney spent

$30million in Florida! It remains to be seen if it was worth it to him. Right now it's not looking good for him.

Holy crap, are you kidding?

Thats our entire war chest..( I say "our", because some of it was mine).
Is there a way to find out how much all the candidates spent?

We should call it a peace

We should call it a peace chest ; )

Peace chest it is!

Any idea how much the other candidates may have spent there?
I'm curious about Votes per dollar...

This is just the beginning...

Look, I've only been familiar with Ron Paul and his ideologies for just less than two weeks and I've never been so fascinated and blown away and inspired by a presidential candidate, ever! A total enlightenment. My point is, this is so new to me but I become increasingly encouraged to see the immense growing support for RP with every new post and every new Youtube video that comes out. The key is to expose as many new people as possible to the Ron Paul message. There have got to be literally thousands and thousands of people walking around clueless about who to vote for, especially many younger people who have no prior party affiliate. There is much apathy out there in need of curing. We need to help administer it.
