4. I may have to send another $100...
... I sent a donation a few weeks ago, almost certain I was dumping it into a black hole. How pleasantly suprised I was last night!

12. Do a fundraiser!
Find somebody at a bar or restaurant who is for Kerry and have a little party, show the Kerry video, say he is for the working people and has always got the working vote in Massachusetts, ask for money and then just have a good time!

5. Good luck to Kerry
It'll be interesting to see what kind of spike he gets in donations due to the win.

I hope for his sake he gets a boost. I think a candidate bankrolling his own campaign sends the wrong kind of message. Steve Forbes, anyone? :hi:

6. You know, Kerry di raise over $20 million
The only one but Dean. He's got a national fundraising base unrivaled by anyone but Dean and Dean's got some problems right now.

I don't think raising money si the issue now. The only reason he dumped money is he needed to win IA and he did. Now fundraising will be easy. Lots of people have been sitting on their money with regards to Kerry because he seemed irrelevant.

9. Good point on the $20 million, though I disagree...
...with this:

"He's got a national fundraising base unrivaled by anyone but Dean."

I think Clark's fundraising base tops Kerry's right now.

He's raised over $15 million in just over 3 months.

Kerry's had 2 years to come up with his $20 million.

That's not a minor difference.

8. We love him for it
He put his money where his mouth was, I'll always be grateful for that. That's how important it is to him that we get George Bush out of the White House and get this country going forward again.

11. True enough
Don't get me wrong - I like Kerry :hi:

But his fundraising had stalled through the last quarter. It'll be interesting to see where it goes from here.
