but my guess is she's among them. Too early to say, but some others were very low on funds going in.

As of 7/15 FEC report:

our system of government does not want that. I am happy she had a platform even if only for a little while.

won't depend on her heartfelt but massively incompetent judgment. This period of contempt for expertise and experience that we're all living in did not occur naturally. It, including a rejection of science worthy of the dark ages, has been carefully developed in the electorate by wealthy RW forces to dumb down the electorate and defeat us.

I have no respect for Williamson because instead of fighting this, campaigning for the best people for this enormously important job, she's capitalizing on it. You do realize she'll come out of this contemptible use of our primary as advertising with far greater market demand? She'll be able to grossly inflate the prices for her "products," including speaking engagements. I resent that bitterly. It used to be just the Republicans who did that.

She's did well last night and got tons of coverage... It may not be impossible for her to poll at 2% in some polls between now and the September debate, which could qualify her.
