Get ready Boston for the Ron Paul ... blimp
From the department of "We Can't Make This Up"...
Some supporters of Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul want to celebrate their "Ron Paul Revolution" by engaging in a major online fund-raising day on Dec. 16, the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party. This comes of the heals of their most successful fund-raising day ever in early November where they pulled in $4.3 million.
While there will be no physical fund-raising event in Boston, supporters are trying to raise enough money to, get this, fly a blimp from New Jersey to Boston for the big day. To make this happen they figure they'll need to raise $200,000 by tomorrow night.
To accomplish that they have created a website at RonPaulBlimp.com and this ad below.
