Rand Paul Raises $10,000 in 16 Hours in Mini Money Bomb

A spontaneous, mini money bomb that began last night around 7:00pm, just prior to Rand Paul's appearance on the Rachel Maddow Show during which he announced the formation of an exploratory committee to run for US Senate in the state of Kentucky, raised over $10,500 + online in just 16 hours at this new website RandPaul2010.com.
And we're just getting warmed up. Way to go everyone!

Go Man Go !
I am moving BACK to the Lexington area and would totally support Dr. Paul. We need to get the people out who are bound and determined to ruin and sell out this country - they are trying so hard before we can get them out!!
We need people in office who act on their beliefs, not by what "the powers that be" that rule them want them to do (like Soros in Obama's pocket). Obama came from the most corrupt city in the country and he learned well how to cheat, lie and pay off to get what he wants. Right now he's paying off the unions for getting him into power.
We need honest politicians - is this an oxymoron!!!
Go for it, Dr. Paul.
Nancy
$70 to $15,000!
I think we should really shoot to try and raise as much money for him while it's in exploritory committee as possible.
If he could raise as much as bunning already has raised -- he'd HAVE to run even if Bunning stayed in. Plus Bunning would be more likely to drop out if Rand raised a whole bunch of money.

Lets get him
all he needs. We are making statements now about the revolution, and that we may be broke but we will still keep coming strong.

The R3volution requires action, not observation!!!!
This is wonderful:
I know it takes funds to mount a successful campaign and will be happy to contribute.
Now tell me how to get rid of the two we have in MD.

Next Forty Minutes
Let us in the next forty minutes-10 PM Eastern Time get Dr. Rand Paul exploratory campaign over the 15k mark for the first 24 hrs. We are sitting at 14,220 and we need a little push. Get on the phone, e-mail etc., let us raise that $780. http://www.randpaul2010.com/
16 sixteen minutes left
Let us finish strong, we are just $610 short of 15,000 in 24 hrs. Go Dr. Rand Paul Go! http://www.randpaul2010.com/donation
This is awesome!!!!
I do wish to add some criticism though.
We need to start now with a big money bomb date for September or October.
If we have learned anything ...
The more lead time ...
The bigger the bomb.
Michael ...
Can we get a grass roots thread started that submits ideas for a date. If I did it, it would be ignored. And I think this is very important.
Rand could become a Senator. Our very, very, very best shot at it in the next election cycle.
We need to start early, with or without Rand's endorsement.
If he bails out, we can cancel and any money raised, I am sure he would forward to the C4L.
THIS NEEDS TO BE A PRIORITY.
IMAGINE THE MESSAGE THAT THIS WOULD SEND.
WAHOR!!

In SC
it takes exactly $10,500 to file to run for US Senate, I imagine its the same in KY!
Does that apply in all states
Does this filing fee apply in all states or is imposed by the state of sc?
Thats disgusting that it
Thats disgusting that it costs that much to file!
Impressive
Like father, like son. Just goes to show you how desperate we all are. HELP!! Calling all Doctors Paul.

nice
his website needs to be fixed, i know its early, but we've just made it somewhat newsworthy... the layout and content is good, but fix the picure and his name at the homepage. (who am I talking to?...)
imagine what they'll say - "what is it with these Paul's and ability to raise money in a hurry? A lot of people must like their ideas...but of course they aren't the future of the R party..."
for at least the past 8 years Ron has been the only recognizable R.

Nice to see the KY state graphic filling up so fast!
I added my measly $25 and my spouse added $50.
Oh, and huge thanks to you, Michael Nystrom, for having the foresight to purchase that domain name for Rand way back when!
I'm honestly surprised it
I'm honestly surprised it worked... I thought if I posted something to get people to donate it would just be ignored...
I bet a lot of it just came from people donating because of the announcement though...
who cares where it came from or why, this is great news for Rand!

I think it would be good for you to write up a post about Mr. Harris. I for one would like to know about liberty loving candidates who support Ron Paul. (I apologize if you have already done this.)

I love that! Imagine the possibilities...LOL
I Don’t Wish To Muddy The Waters …
… because the blues make me happy … and because so does Rand Paul’s run …I thought I’d try, with this musical bump, to remind us this is a fund raiser ………. Or else.
Won’t this be a Blues/Grass/Roots effort , after all … so…

Keep the MoJo work’n
Wonderful news.
When I first saw the mini bomb post, I thought it was with way too little notice. Boy was I wrong. I have always said that Ron Paul supporters continue to surpass all expectations.
What a great day on Daily Paul!
