I hit refresh and it went back down, then after a couple of minutes it jumped back up.

I suspect technical difficulties.

hey... an individual w/ mega bucks could donate their life savings to the campaign and it would register for the quarter right? then the campaign would just have to refund it later.. so they'd get their money back right?

Someone like me could have donated their Congressional warchest to Ron Paul and gave him a big boost.
I know that if I don't hit my target donation goal by the end of the year, I will be donating my congressional war chest to Ron's campaign.

If you can do that then maxed out RP contributors could still donate to YOU. hehe

Damn, I was hoping one of those "If 200 other people donate max with me, I'll donate max" type pledges had cashed in.

Actually, It may work out like that... all of my major contributions have come from Ron Paul contributors who have maxed out to him... so, they donated to my congressional campaign...
If I don't get enough money to make a serious run for it... then I will donate my warchest to Ron Paul's campaign... which is perfectly legal...

I left the site on over night and it 1st read over $24 million but once I refreshed it is down to a little over $250,000. Bummer I thought maybe Bill Gates joined up.

You know guys, there's always the possibility that the head-honchos at the campaign are trying to put a slight delay on the results, so that we don't get too cocky, or so that the other candidates retain their false sense of security.

From Jeff Frazee:
"They are having problems with the database. It should be back to normal very soon. I think the meter is slightly off. Last I heard we were around 225k."

ah- its at 282,000.00 .
I don't think its a stretch to think he could raise a ton quickly... I expect that there will be an explosion of support... its not a question of "if", but "when".
