The effort was organized entirely by volunteers online.

This past Sunday, the 234th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul made history Sunday by raising $6 million in online contributions in 24 hours, breaking the record for the most money raised by a national candidate in a single day, and potentially putting Paul on track to surpass the fourth quarter fund raising of all of his competitors in both parties.

The median donation was $50 — much higher than anyone paid for Radiohead’s InRainbows!
My thoughts:
My friends went to the rally in Santa Monica and said it was a motley crew but overall energetic and excited. Congrats to Mr. Paul.
