Some have claimed that this "enthusiasm" is nothing more than the work of a relatively few rabid followers working out of their mom's basement. That's gonna be a hella thing to claim, after tonight.
A few weeks ago some Ron Paul supporters had a great idea: "detonate" what they are calling a "money bomb" (meaning a single day of mass contributions to the Ron Paul campaign). Inspired by the movie V for Vendetta the date was set for today, November the Fifth. Beginning at 12:01 a.m. this morning, Ron Paul supporters were encouraged to donate as much as they can for this fundraising quarter.
It's now 6:42 p.m. Look at this chart comparing fundraising throughout today, with funds raised for the Ron Paul campaign over the previous two days...
That's almost $3 million... raised in a single day. Some are now seriously saying that it could reach 4 or 5 - and perhaps even 6 million - dollars by the end of this evening. In fact, by the time you read this Dr. Paul has probably already overwhelmed the single-day fundraising record (set by Mitt Romney) of $3.1 million earlier this year.
I know of no better way to celebrate such an awesome accomplishment, than to post V's televised speech from the movie V for Vendetta:
"Remember, remember, the Fifth of November."

"That's almost $3 million"
I'm responsible for two bucks of that three million.
Went to a gun show where the Ron Paul campaign rented a couple of tables. They were having a raffle of a coin with Ron Paul's likeness on it. I bought a couple of tickets (If I had won, I was going to send it to you), but I didnt win. So Ron Paul got my two bucks. :-) (a guy after me bought ten tickets)
This is a slap in the face to George W. Bush. The people have decided and we don't want the Decider any more!
Speak for yourself.
The Decider should be crowned King of realm and the dynasty should continue with the Bush twins suceeding their father.
I want more Bush!
Hey, I saw your "toilet" video on the net, very funny.
LOVE the money bomb!!
