![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | i foresee a clear win for Gingrich...maybe not in the primary but at least for the name lol....unfortunately it will take a while for him to get it back but he could run again in 2016, this time with his "secured" own domain name :-) cheers liquid |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I agree. It is a much better fit for what he does. This stunt by this group is likely to end in a legal battle in which I would suspect they would have very little chance winning even though possession is 9/10th of the law. If they were smart they would be best to unload it. The longer they brag about its ownership and joke about prices the less time it has value, especially if he loses the race. He is still worth a pretty penny but the necessity of the name drops dramatically.

I'm sure political strategists know exactly how much this domain is worth versus spending the money on TV ads. It's funny how Rick Schwartz was saying awhile ago that TeaParty.com was the most valuable domain for sale and worth over $1 Million. Now look at where the Tea Party is at. They went from floundering when the offer was made on the domain to now being totally irrelevant. Still think it's worth $1 Million? ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=741198 Hopefully the Newt domain owners don't also screw it up for themselves. | ||||

Same issue as now, a group of individuals that own a valuable domain name. They are not in tune with the trends and hold out thinking they will get more and more than what it is currently worth. They hold it too long and it drops values immensely. I never thought TeaParty.com was worth $1 million but now it is definitely not even worth anywhere near that. Do you sell it now at a reduced rate? Or do you hold on in case the tea party comes back in prominence? Then you risk it becoming completely irrelevant. This is the reality of domain name investing and what I love most. It works like the real world. If you are not capitalizing on opportunities as they come or making them yourselves you are likely to miss out on your opportunity.
