A new political campaign promotional system, the Liberty Straw Poll, has been created to raise awareness and funding for candidates at all levels of government who best promise to serve the people with a platform of freedom, prosperity and peace through adherence to the rule of law, the U.S. Constitution.

Well folks, we won some, we lost some, and some are yet to be decided!  For detail stats and returns see the report here on KOCO (OKC): http://www.koco.com/politics/1...

While participating in a recent Congressional campaign the strategy session turned towards fund raising as it so often does. The campaign like most campaigns was strapped for cash and the discussion turned towards holding a money bomb. What is a money bomb? A money bomb is a previously specified time period, usually a day (24 hours), when a candidate's supporters pool their donations in an attempt to raise a shed load of campaign funds in a short period of time. In addition to raising money, it is also an attempt to gain media attention. Ron Paul's grassroots supporters originated and perfected the money bomb concept. Over $4 million was raised during the November 5th money bomb and over $6 million for the Tea Party event on December 16th last year. Since then the economy has only worsened and the money bomb totals have dwindled.

Since very early in the 2008 campaign, I have been impressed by how much has been accomplished with ChipIn. The small widget has been a great success in helping people raise funds for everything from television advertising to envelopes and stationary.
