Ron Paul Backer Aims to Snag Travelers
From US News & World Report:
Larry Lepard, a venture capitalist and Ron Paul supporter from Massachusetts, has shelled out about $85,000 of his own money to throw what he told U.S. News is a "small hard rock at a good target": a full-page ad supporting Paul that will run in tomorrow's edition of USA Today—the nation's largest circulation daily newspaper—on the busiest travel day of the year. He noted that he bought a right-hand position in the newspaper's front section.

One of the things that is going to shock the socks off of the GOP establishment is the common occurrence of this type of "in-kind" contribution to Dr. Paul's campaign. This is precisely the kind of thing that McCain and his ilk feared when they embarked on the incumbent protection act, a.k.a. McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform. This isn't a fat cat slipping a check into some political whore's back pocket. This is someone with money who is telling the world what he believes. This is a sterling example of why CFR is anti-constitutional and anathema to the First Amendment.
