Dr. Ron Paul having quite the week!

In case you missed it, Ron Paul is on fire this week. Unfortunately, most of the news media are giving this just a quick brush over then it is back to "Brittney Spear's 16 year old sister is pregnant" (seriously! ugh)

Tea Party

This past Sunday, the supporters for Dr. Paul raised $6 million in 1 day! This is a new record for fund raising. This was completely organized by his supporters and his campaign had nothing to do with it. To put that in prospective, John McCain only raised $5 million in the entire 3rd quarter (July 1 to September 30) Wow! The average donation was just over $100. Wow again. This campaign is funded by average American who are just tired of the status quo. It was organized through http://www.teaparty07.com

To compare this against other candidates fund raising take a look at this chart:

Endorsed by Andrew Sullivan

Although I do not put much weight in endorsements, it was nice to see a prominent blogger stump for Dr. Paul.

Andrew Sullivan Endorses Ron Paul!

Glenn Beck Show

Also For those who did not see it. Dr. Paul was on Glenn Beck's show on CNN Tuesday night. All in all, it was a good interview, though I don't understand all the 9/11 "truth" questions or the question about the crazy supporter. If you have not had a chance to hear Dr. Paul speak about his positions, this is a great opportunity to hear him. All 5 videos together are 40 minutes.
