Subj: All eyes are on Iowa
Dear
William,
What is Mitt Romney afraid of?
When news came out
that Big Government establishment Republican Mitt Romney was just going
to skip all straw polls from here on out, I couldn't help but
chuckle...
After we beat him fair and square
at CPAC and, more recently, the Southern Republican Leadership Straw
Poll in New Orleans, he must be tired of losing!
But the
truth is, the decision to skip the Iowa Straw Poll is a sign of
weakness
- and one that gives you and me a real opening we MUST
exploit.
That's why I'm counting on you to act IMMEDIATELY.
You
see, right now, all eyes are on
Iowa.
And unlike other polls, the August 13 Iowa Straw
Poll isn't one the media can spend weeks hyping and then simply
dismiss.
The Iowa Straw Poll has always been a crucial
bellwether for the first-in-the-nation Iowa caucuses.
It
can turn a candidate into an instant contender - or CRUSH any hope of
future success with a poor showing.
This year, the Iowa Straw
Poll is more important than ever.
Many GOP voters are repulsed with establishment frontrunner
Romney's flip-flopping on key issues.
They're not happy
with his liberal record as Governor of Massachusetts and his signature
health care bill that served as the model for
"ObamaCare."
Governor Romney isn't even bothering to try to
soothe grassroots misgivings by showing up at the most important straw
poll in the nation.
That's why, right now,
many GOP voters are desperately searching for a candidate who can go
toe-to-toe with Governor Romney.
Some candidates get
handed the chance to do just that, then swing and miss on live
TV.
Well, that won't be me. While we should be civil and
keep campaigns about issues, I'm not going to sit back and let someone
try to pull the wool over your eyes, either.
This race is too
important. Our COUNTRY is too important.
Right now,
columnists, TV pundits, talk radio hosts, and national media
commentators are all looking to the Iowa Straw Poll to see which
candidate or candidates have what it takes to take on Mitt Romney and
win. And with my record of NEVER toeing the establishment line, I
am the LAST candidate they want to acknowledge as a top
contender.
So I'm counting on you to help me
send shockwaves throughout the national political establishment with a
strong finish at the Iowa Straw Poll.
The good news is,
you and I are stunning the political establishment at virtually every
turn.
I reported an incredible $4.5 million fundraising take on
June 30th – MORE than I had originally hoped for!
Poll after
national primary poll shows my campaign within striking distance of
first place, and grassroots support for my campaign
is growing by leaps and bounds.
Just four years ago, my
opponents took every opportunity they could to scoff at my limited
government, constitutional views in Presidential debates. They've
been proven wrong.
And now, as you and I saw
in the recent New Hampshire debate, my opponents are falling all over
themselves to see who can agree with me the most!
But
here's what they won't tell you: their Big Government, big spending
views haven't really changed, of course.
They are just being
FORCED to recognize that the American people are flat-out sick of being
taxed, groped, spied on, and spent into bankruptcy - just as I
predicted.
You see, I warned of the housing bubble and the Federal
Reserve's "print now, ask questions later," dollar-destroying
policies.
I opposed the bailouts and loudly and forcefully
explained why they were not only morally wrong, but would make things
WORSE.
I argued against never-ending, TRILLION-dollar occupations
and unpopular, undeclared wars like President Obama's new outrageous
misadventure in Libya.
And if elected President, I
will:
***
Stop the spread of socialist, Big Government health
care and instead work to repeal the "ObamaCare" monstrosity;
***
Stop the growth of government spending, restrictive
regulations, and interference in our lives;
***
Cut taxes and eliminate the IRS, because I
believe the money you earn is yours and does NOT belong to
government;
***
Audit the Federal Reserve, which I
believe will serve as an important first step toward finally ending the
Fed once and for all;
***
Ensure the federal government returns to its
constitutional limits by eliminating departments and agencies
that are not authorized by the Constitution;
***
Repeal Big Government schemes like the so-called
"PATRIOT Act";
***
Return to the Founders' more humble foreign
policy. American troops and taxpayers deserve better than
to be used for "nation-building" or policing the world. We cannot
afford trillion dollar international boondoggles that cost us our
lives,
our fortunes, and our freedom.
No matter how hard they try, the national media and the GOP
political establishment CANNOT dismiss my campaign.
That's because the momentum is with us. My campaign will
only get stronger as the weeks and months progress.
In fact, you
and I don't even need to win the Iowa Straw Poll outright.
But a
strong showing on August 13 is our chance to show that my campaign has
the organization and the message to stand toe-to-toe with any
opponent.
And if you and I can capitalize on a top-tier finish in
the Straw Poll with a massive blitz of campaign stops, media
interviews,
and paid ads, we'll be laying the groundwork for a WIN in the Iowa
caucuses.
But
to make it happen, I need to be able to count on you.
In fact, I
need to raise
$1.4 million before the Straw Poll kicks off.
If I can't, I'm afraid I'm going to have to curtail some of
my most critical on-the-ground activities both before and after the
Straw Poll.
This would be nothing short of a DISASTER.
As you may know, I've been crisscrossing Iowa
for months, explaining why I believe a hard-and-fast return to the
Constitution is what our nation needs right now.
My
campaign has been busy mobilizing my Iowa supporters by mail, email,
and
telephone to explain just how important the August 13 Straw Poll
is.
But there's much more to be done.
In a state like Iowa, the little things - like yard signs,
bumper stickers, and billboards - can have an enormous
impact.
Big things like radio, TV, and newspaper ads
exposing my opponents' Big Government records can make the
difference.
That's why your IMMEDIATE
and generous support is so crucial.
So can I count
on you for a contribution?
$5,000 is the limit for married couples. It's $2,500 for an
individual.
But
whatever you can do - $500, $250, $100, $50, or $35 - will help
tremendously and will be very much appreciated.
Time
is running out before the Iowa Straw Poll, so it's vital you act
IMMEDIATELY!
I know you won't let me down - especially
considering just how important this is. But please act
TODAY!
For Liberty,
Ron
Paul
P.S. Mitt Romney's decision not to compete in the
Iowa Straw Poll could cost him dearly, and it gives you and me a huge
opening to prove I have the campaign organization and the message to
WIN.
Please help me take advantage of this great opportunity with
a generous
contribution.
$5,000 is the limit for married
couples. It's $2,500 for an individual.
But whatever you
can do - $500, $250, $100, $50, or $35 - will help tremendously and
