        endpoint.Path = path
        if method == "GET" {
                endpoint.RawQuery = values.Encode()
        }

        var body io.Reader
        if method != "GET" && values != nil {
                body = strings.NewReader(values.Encode())
        }

        if self.Log {
                fmt.Println("R before mod : ", r)
                fmt.Println("RGO :", method, endpoint.String())
                fmt.Println(values.Encode())
        }

        request, err := http.NewRequest(method, endpoint.String(), body)
        if err != nil {
                return err
        }

        response, err := http.DefaultClient.Do(request)
        r = response
        if self.Log {
                fmt.Println("RESPONSE : ", response)
                fmt.Println("R : ", r)
        }

Basically once I get the response at the bottom I try to set "r" so that I can use it as "resp" but it remains an empty response despite the print statements to the contrary at the bottom which print fine.

Line 63.
You want:
*r = *response

Since you want to copy the value from the location pointed to by the return from Do() to the location pointed by r.

Thanks, that was it. Must have tried every other permutation but that.
