For those of you who haven't yet heard, Ron Paul took over 10% in yesterday's Iowa caucus, handily beating Rudy Giuliani and finishing right behind both Fred Thompson and John McCain. This despite that Rudy Giuliani made more visits to Iowa than Ron Paul. And, entrance polls showed that Ron Paul took first place (29%) among independent Republicans!<BR/><BR/>This campaign is just beginning, and we are starting off better than anyone in the "mainstream" media imagined.<BR/><BR/>Back in February 2007, no one gave Ron Paul any chance to succeed in this race. Ron Paul did not have the name recognition of other candidates, nor the financial resources. Essentially, Ron Paul started at a level of 0% in all 50 states.<BR/><BR/>But then, as we know, something started to happen. Americans started to hear this message of freedom, and began to galvanize behind the cause. It's no small feat that we brought in 10% yesterday in Iowa, a double-digit turnout that has brought a lot of commentary - even from Fox News!<BR/><BR/>Just last night, Greta van Sustern had this to say:<BR/><BR/>Ten per cent is not insignificant - that's a huge number. Here you have a candidate that 10 per cent of the people caucused in his party really want him and it's not like he's an insignificant player. He didn't just drop in yesterday to the process, he has been running for president for a long time, and certainly many of the issues he's raised are rather provocative and certainly stimulate the debate; that's not a bad thing.<BR/><BR/>This election is just getting started. It's time to mobilize and do what needs to be done. It's time to win the most important election of our lifetime.<BR/><BR/>We can only compete in the Super Tuesday primaries and caucuses with your continued support.
