But it came sooner than even I feared.<\/p>\n<p>A mainstream media network has gone into all-out warfare against Rand,  beginning with a full 24 hours of repeating outright lies by Rand\u2019s Democrat  opponent.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s funny. Rand\u2019s opponent\u2019s ideas are anti-freedom. They\u2019re pro Big  Government. They\u2019re pro-welfare state, and will stand lock-step with the Obama  agenda. And if they are the issue, he can\u2019t beat Rand in Kentucky. So he\u2019s  trying to make sure this race is on a different playing field.<\/p>\n<p>Rand needs to fight back. Some of it will be now, some will be in the coming  months. But he needs your help to do it.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/purewaterfreedom.com\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: black 0px solid;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.prisonplanet.com\/images\/march2010\/260310banner2.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Ron Paul Defends Rand Against Concerted Corporate Media Attack  260310banner2\" width=\"335\" height=\"205\" title=\"Ron Paul Defends Rand Against Concerted Corporate Media Attack  Photo\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I know it seems like he won his primary by a lot, and it certainly was a  great achievement. But having done this many times before, I urged him to take  nothing for granted, and to run like he was 10 points behind. He did just that,  and it was an amazing victory to watch! I was very proud of him and his  team.<\/p>\n<p>And thanks to you, he had the funds to do everything he needed to do. But he  wisely used those funds in the primary, and has only a small amount left in his  campaign treasury as we begin the general election.<\/p>\n<p>And now he\u2019s under all-out attack.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you\u2019ll help him out the way you did in the primary. We can\u2019t count on  others to help. Sure, he\u2019ll have a few more friends now. But we need that to be  in ADDITION to what our movement can give him. We can\u2019t rest now, this is one of  the biggest opportunities for a liberty minded candidate in a long time.<\/p>\n<p>Please consider helping Rand today, and as often as you can throughout the  general election. He\u2019s going to need to raise three of four times what he raised  in the primary to compete with the national special interests that will pour  money into Kentucky to stop him.<\/p>\n<p>These early attacks prove one thing for sure: The establishment and the  powers that be in Washington are scared to death of a Senator Rand Paul. And  they should be.<\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s start helping him get there to shake up the Senate!<\/p>\n<p>Please donate today at www.RandPaul2010.com.<\/p>\n<p>In Liberty,<br \/>\nRon Paul<\/p>\n<div id=\"crp_related\">\n<h3>Related Posts:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/tomorrow-a-major-political-event-is-coming-as-the-rand-paul-era-begins.html\" rel=\"bookmark\" class=\"crp_title\">Tomorrow, A Major Political Event Is Coming, As The Rand Paul Era Begins<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/rand-paul%e2%80%99s-win-could-be-bad-news-for-republicans.html\" rel=\"bookmark\" class=\"crp_title\">Rand Paul\u2019s win could be bad news for Republicans<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/why-neocons-hate-rand-paul.html\" rel=\"bookmark\" class=\"crp_title\">Why NeoCons Hate Rand Paul<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/o%e2%80%99reilly-not-happy-with-rand-paul-for-not-wanting-to-nuke-iran.html\" rel=\"bookmark\" class=\"crp_title\">O\u2019Reilly Not Happy With Rand Paul For Not Wanting To Nuke Iran<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/nw0.eu\/rand-is-right.html\" rel=\"bookmark\" class=\"crp_title\">Rand Is Right<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Via Prison Planet.com \u00bb Commentary RandPaul2010.com Friday, May 28, 2010 Dear Friend, It sure didn\u2019t take long for the entire establishment to attack my son Rand in the days after he won the Kentucky Senate primary.
