In sum, this seems to be a hit job on Ron Paul. I found the link on NewsVine.

Ron Paul’s Fund Raising
Recent headlines have been focused on the record fund raising day in the Paul campaign. It was a very effective campaign stunt. Although he still trails most other candidates in overall fund raising by a pretty wide margin, his campaign grabbed headlines by setting up an internet campaign stunt designed to raise as much as possible in a single day.

Stunt huh?

What we have here is a candidate trying to win the Republican nomination by raising money from liberals across the political aisle.

That part I agree with.

Like Howard Dean before him, Ron Paul first grabbed headlines with his very hi-tech internet campaign, which is now easily explained by the fact that his largest constituency is in the computer tech community. It also explains how Paul supporters have perfected the art of “spamming” or “jamming” online polls, creating a false impression of bigger support while invalidating poll after poll. Other tech giants like Microsoft and Verizon top his donors list as well.

Spamming and jamming = no real support, huh?

I actually agree with many of Ron Paul’s positions, outside of his suicidal national security perspective of course. But I can not agree with the campaign tactics of using leftist money and votes to hijack the Republican nomination and I’m shocked that any Republican would.

Who knew not nuking Iran was suicidal?
If they think he's dangerous then he's doing something right and I could still vote for him
GGreenwald smells the fear.
