Bradley, please don't post this stuff about his House re-election. No one wants to think about that, because that would mean he LOST his bid for President.

It's rather deflating and right now we need to be focused on WINNING.

I would imagine everyone is donating to his Presidential campaign instead.

You DO realize, don't you, that those who have donated the max for his presidential campaign can donate the max to his house bid and that that money can be used for his presidential bid, don't you?

Nope, I didn't. I stand corrected. :o

Sorry for the confusion. One, under Texas' LBJ law, Dr. Paul is running simultaneously for both and can be the Presidential nominee and the Congressional nominee at the same time. The more money raised, the better--even for his presidential campaign. The "House" campaign can run biographical ads in a few major media markets in Texas, etc.

And yes, thanks for those pointing out that we can give to the Congressional race if we've already maxed out our presidential campaign contributions.
