FREEDOM, IN -- The Horning/Kelly campaign reported today that they had a nice day's response to their first NO DEAL money bomb, one of their first organized fundraising events.

The money raised from the single-day effort -- patterned after Ron Paul's now famous "money bombs" -- brought in money for yard signs, radio and cable advertising.

Lisa Kelly, candidate for Lt. Governor, noted in a letter to supporters, "We'll be ordering (and making) yard signs soon! If you can help us distribute them in your area, please email Andy or me."

On the heels of two successful debate performances, this is excellent news for the campaign.

Kelly ends her message to supporters with their grassroots theme of "Liberty or Bust!," noting that "grassroots activism is a beautiful thing."

LAPORTE, IN -- t is always interesting to watch the lengths that some enlightened journalists will go to in order to avoid reporting on what Libertarian candidates are saying. Despite the non-stop 24/7 media frenzy of the McBama campaign, rarely do they ever mention Libertarian Bob Barr who is on target to be on the ballot in just about every state. If they do, he is usually painted as a “spoiler” to the Republicratic Party’s assumed ownership of your vote. But the latest manipulation by Indianapolis Star political guru Matthew Tully about the gubernatorial debate is totally amusing if not downright hilarious.
