With that kind of money, the two of them will sling so much mud back and forth at each other trying to win the nomination nobody will want to vote for them in the general election.

If Ron can win the nomination I'll gladly take a match up between him and either of those two! My dad is a hardcore old fashioned democrat and he's done said he will NOT vote for either of them if they make it to the big dance.

I live in Illinois. Obama kinda just came out of nowhere with people talking about what an awsome guy he was and how he would be president one day, etc... If I didnt know better I'd say he was pre-destined to be where hes at. (also I can't say I've ever seen him do much of anything for us)

How much of that money raised is invididual contributions, a la the only way Ron has gotten his money? I'd have to think alot of the money raised, especially for someone like Richardson, is from special interests. Does anyone REALLY care about Bill Richardson?

The other campaigns are raising a lot of money, but it seems like most of them are having difficulty passing their 1Q numbers. There must be some donor fatigue out there.

Hopefully headquarters won't keep us waiting to long, unless they feel like they recieved a ton of money yesterday at the rally and want to wait until it's all counted.

Guys part of the other campaigns being big and professionally run is they have accounting firms and accountants keeping tabs daily/ We the ron paul campaign have [Abe by himself opening mail and running a calculater} ok I made that up but you get the point Ann
