It took me forever to find anything. But I found some data from the 2004 race primaries. Just about every candidate did not raise quite as much as in the third quarter. The only ones that did raise more were not front runners.
So, as I understand, in the fourth quarter for the republican side, Giuliani took in the most with 11M followed by Romney(excluding his own money, haha) with 10M. On the democratic side, Clinton took in the most with 22M followed by Obama with 19M.
If we look at history I believe we can safely assume that these "front runners" will not raise more than the above figures in Q4. Exception: I believe Clinton (due to current events) will raise at the very most 20M.
Now, Ron Paul has currently raised 8.1M. We can add to that 50k per day (to be safe) until the 16th and another 500k in offline donations. This puts us up to 10.2M pretty easily. On the 16th, I'll say that we raise a solid 7M which I believe is definitely achievable (if not on the low side at the pace we're going). That puts us to 17.2M . The last 15 days I will say that we'll raise a good 100k a day because people are pumped up. That puts us up to 18.7M
This is just using safe figures. If we raise 18.7M, we'll be the top republican fundraiser FOR SURE and even have a good shot at upsetting Obama. BUT, think about it. Just another 2 mil along the road either through the tea party or higher average day donations, we'll break 20 MILLION and probably have the highest quarter among ANY presidential candidate.
If we can beat Hillary in fundraising and break that symbolic 20M barrier, it will be beyond huge. I'm excited people, WE CAN DO IT. We just have to advertise the 16th like crazy!!!! Let's Do IT!
