Something we should do when estimating number of RP supporters

RP Gear does suck. The only thing I've bought has been a bumper sticker

Yep, i kinda figured. Id say the number of people who physically donated money directly to his campaign is on par with the other candidates.

Something we should do when estimating number of RP supporters

Here is an excerpt from the article.

"Mr. Obama’s roster of 258,000 donors has exceeded the national mailing list that Mrs. Clinton accumulated through her two Senate races and Bill Clinton’s two runs for the White House. None of the other primary candidates in either party has claimed more than 100,000 individual donors. "

It looks like a good goal is to hit 100,000 donors. Every little bit helps.
