“I’m sure there’s not going to be a primary,” Johnson said. “This is just for (Grayson’s) exploratory committee. I think if he gets enough money he’ll be the candidate and there won’t be a primary.”

I think he was talking about Bunning raising enough money , not Greyson

I'm not sure. It could be read either way I guess.

Rand has only raised $22,000 so far.. 5 rich fat cats could donate that ($2300 + $2300 from their spouse x 5) to Greyson and probably will.

... which makes me think that in the future it might be good for the candidates to display how many individuals have donated. Having $22,000 donated from 1,000 people is far more powerful than having that same amount donated from 5.

.

Don't sweat it...when the Moneybombs and fundraising letters go out, money won't be our problem.

The real challenge will be selling GOP primary voters...who by nature tend to be obedient to their party leaders....

we have a primary coming up here in NJ and the GOP Establishment has lined up behind a liberal Republican (Chris Christie) who is leading in the polls against his conservative opponent (Steve Lonegan).

Simply by talking like a conservative he's got the people duped.

The KEY to victory in Kentucky will be signing up independents to crossover and cancel out the neo-con yahoos.

He should have a meter on his website showing how many have donated, it's a powerful message!
