Capitol Hill Blue Desperately Slams Ron Paul

After getting the story on Ron Paul's 2nd quarter fundraising dead wrong earlier in the week, the wankers at Capitol Hill Blue are back today to whine about it.

Although they conspicuously don't talk about how their prediction on Paul's fundraising was dead wrong, they seem quite upset to see that Paul now has more cash on hand than doddering old fool and free-speech hater John McCain.

You can tell they're really angry, because they trot out the whole parade of anti-Paul smears: "racist", "anti-Semite", etc. They trot out the discredited Chronicle accusations as well. I had no idea they were such McCain fans. Sorry, guys. I hear your little hearts breaking.

They also try out a new smear, claiming that the Paul campaign had earlier claimed to have raised $5 million. They'd be hard-pressed to document this lie, however, since no Paul spokesman has ever been quoted making such a claim. They got that $5 million number from freemarketnews.com as a pure rumor - and they don't disclose that freemarketnews.com was also the source of the false $1.5 million number Blue quoted earlier this week. Nice way to try to pin your mistakes on the campaign, boys. Way to go.

What losers.
