Ron Paul has passed John McCain in Fundraising!

Ron PaulFrom ABC News.Com...

"ABC News' George Stephanopoulos Reports: Though often regarded as a longshot candidate for president, Republican Ron Paul tells ABC News that he has an impressive $2.4 million in cash on hand after raising an equal amount during the second quarter, putting him ahead of one-time Republican frontrunner John McCain, who reported this week he has only $2 million in the bank. 

In an exclusive interview taped Friday and airing Sunday on "This Week," Paul said his campaign is on a better trajectory than McCain's.

"I think some of the candidates are on the down-slope, and we're on the up-slope," said Paul."

Of course ABC News had to add:

"Paul, who polls show with support in the low single digits, said his surprisingly strong fundraising is the best measure of his support."

Well, at least ABC got it "half right", strong fundraising is his best measure of support. However ; Lovers of Freedom, will remember that Ron Paul participated in the first three Republican presidential debates and online polls that appeared on MSNBC, CNN and ABC, and which allowed free and open participation revealed that Ron Paul won by large margins.

Press On! Dr. Paul. Press On!
