[tag]Ron Paul[/tag] supporters helped their candidate stay at the top of the heap this week on eBay. Selling buttons, pins, bumper stickers, banners and anything else to support their man, Ron Paul items totalled $3,341 last week compared to the top Democrat Hillary Clinton's $2,252. Once again, the popular [tag]Hillary Clinton nutcracker[/tag] came in near the top of both Democrat and Republicans at $920.
Everything has it's price...
I have a few things with autographs that I hold as special keepsakes. My [tag]autographs [/tag]from Red Skelton, Rodney Dangerfield, and Henry Ford II all hold a special place to me. Those guys were important to me and took time to stop and pay attention to a teenage kid. I wouldn't sell those items. So why are so many people selling autographed [tag]Hillary Clinton[/tag] books? Is that a sign of support? I don't think so. It seems more a sign of jumping on the bandwagon and selling something while there are buyers. Wouldn't the book be worth more if she was the first woman president? Are people dumping the books because they feel she won't make it?
Ron Paul supporters once again are almost without exception selling items to further the "[tag]Ron Paul Revolution[/tag]." I must say, [tag]Fred Thompson[/tag] supporters are also using eBay as a way to spread their candidate's paraphernalia.
The Polls
With Ron Paul the usual exception, eBay items reflect the current average poll standings of candidates from both parties. I even saw one seller of old LPs breaking the eBay rules by inserting "Ron Paul" in his eBay listing titles just to get people's attention I suppose. Does Ron have anything to do with the musical "Hair?"
