Donklephant observes in a roundup of coverage of Ron Paul’s Guy Fawkes feat:
In my experience, Ron Paul’s base is mostly made up of Libertarians who’ve been voting for Republicans who claim to be fiscally responsible, but now they’re hearing somebody who actually sounds like he’ll be responsible, both with their wallets and their lives, and they’re responding to that in historic numbers.
In short, not all Republicans are social conservatives or war hawks, and you’d do well to take note.
Hear, hear!
It’d be nice for there to be a few mainstream candidates who represent those folks who desire some fiscal responsibility, yet aren’t entirely repressive on social issues.

A few supporters got together and called for an attempt to attract media attention to the Ron Paul campaign by raising as much money as possible in a single day — Monday, 5 November, a.k.a. Guy Fawkes Day.
It’s just after midnight Eastern time as I write this, and the “Money Graph” shows about $4 million raised in the day.
Impressive. It beats attempting to explode a load of gunpowder in the basement of the Capitol, I guess.
