Republican "F7" Moneybomb Attempt Is A Dud

Created by Bush/Giuliani consultant and Romney supporter Patrick Ruffini, the "F7" February 7 fundraiser was clearly designed to copy the grasroots fundraising used by the Ron Paul campaign, but instead as a pledge of support for the Republican nominee, John McCain. As of 6:17pm EST, this was their haul:



That's not a typo. They raised $2,290 dollars from 26 donors. By comparison, anti-war Ron Paul raised $1.8 million in his most recent moneybomb, while Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama have raised at least $11 million in the last 24 hours.

Bomb, indeed, even with the pimping of top con bloggers like Glenn Reynolds.

You know how Hillary Hate is supposed to propel the GOP over her if she's the nominee? Not so much.


:rofl:

i want to destroy the cult of the evil god Hillabrayrackoclintbamaon.

See? Even the *name* looks evil. I bet it adds up to 666 if you get some professional numerologists on it, too.

10. Also: Rudy's consultant! Rudy wins for the most entertaining candidate of 2008
We should have more homage threads to the laughs and tears (from laughter) he brought us.

15. Bwa ha ha ha ha ha
The GOP (except for Ron Paul) still hasn't figured out how to get money from the Internet. Their strength is still direct mail.

Paul's inroads are troubling, however, though I don't think his base would support anybody else in the GOP.
