Ron Paul supporters, they’re at it again. Hoping to detonate what they call a “money bomb,” the supporters started fundraising at midnight Saturday and have already raised $2 million as of about 10:30 a.m. today, more than at this point on Nov. 5, according to figures they posted online. They hope to collect a total of $10 million by midnight Sunday.
They’re seizing on the 234th aniversary of the Boston Tea Party and converging on the city to rally.
They plan on gathering on the State House steps at 1 p.m. and parading down to Faneuil Hall, where they will listen to speeches in tune with Paul’s libertarian platform. Speakers will include the Republican presidential candidate’s son, Dr. Rand Paul, an eye surgeon, and Carla Howell, the libertarian who ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2002.
