Ron Paul pulled in how much in one day?

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2007/11/06/presidential-shocker-paul-raises-more-than-4-million-in-24-hours/

At least i'm not the only one who'd like to see him as president.

For those of you who haven't head of Molly Ivins, she was a columnist whose forte was skewering TX politics and politicians.

I seriously doubt he gets the nomination and if he runs independent I won't waste a vote on him. What I will do is vote with my checkbook and send his campaign a few bucks. I know that won't make a difference either, but at least I'll know I didn't just b!tch and do nothing about it.

Doesn't surprise me.

He has literature at all of the local gun shops.

I saw someone back in August holding a "Ron Paul" sign on a street corner in Morris, IL.

He's the only candidate I've seen any advertising for. Must be the kinds of places I frequent...

The only issue I disagree with him on is the immediate withdrawal from Iraq.

I never thought much of Molly Ivins' abilities as a writer or her political opinions.

Ron Paul has no chance at all

+1. She used to be printed in the local rag thru syndication. At first, she had a pic of herself that was apparently pretty doctored up. Then came the real Molly. As stupid looking as she sounded.

I was surprised when she died. She wasn't all that old, right? But, I digress.
