Rand needs $30k to have raised $600k this quarter!

Getting him to $600k for the quarter is a nice round number and will for good media reports.

Start donating!

What is the goin average raised mon-fri? Seems like this won't happen.

Better get a small money bomb going for Wed. the 31st. I know it's a late notice, but surely we have the resources to push out enough emails to get a thousand or so to donate. If the emails start flying from Ron Paul, Rand's facebook, Trevor, etc.. we should be able to do this.

bump!

all that needs to be done is for Ron to say on his facebook that Trey Grayson was endorsed by cheney... maybe link to the new radio ad .... then ask for a few more doantions to push him to 600k. thats all

Not to be a buzzkill but is the $600K mark really more important than giving the base a chance to recharge after the Mar. 23 moneybomb?

Seems to me it's the difference between them putting out a press release that says "over $600,000" and "nearly $600,000"...I think it'll be fine either way

^ agree with economics102.

Fundraising always dries up the month after a money bomb. That's why I said Grayson will probably outraise Rand in Q2 (which won't be measured since the primary is in May.) Plus Grayson tends to raise slightly faster or on par with Rand during non-money bomb periods.

Rand probably outraised Grayson in Q1, but he'll need to preserve that money for the final stretch. If it's just a tid-for-tat negative campaign answer and response that could be bad.

He needs some money for positive ads at the end, and the only way to do that is to try to save money right now so he has more later.

The campaign may also be getting money from offline sources (checks mailed in for example) that will push them over $600k.
