Thompson Campaign Counterattacks Ron Paul Juggernaut

Just spotted this novel idea advanced by the heretofore flagging Fred Thompson presidential campaign:

(2007-12-17) — Republican Presidential candidate Fred Thompson today, upon hearing that rival Ron Paul’s supporters had raised $6 million in 24 hours to commemorate the Boston Tea Party, called on his supporters to match that figure in gun purchases before Christmas to mark George Washington’s victory at the Battle of Trenton.

Congrats to the Thompson people for a great political stunt!

What? This report is from Scrappleface? That's very different.

Never mind.
