After being largely ignored for our achievement on December 16th, do you think it will make a difference whether we raise $20 million instead of $19.5 million for the quarter?
By the time the FEC filings from the other campaigns are made public, Iowa, Wyoming, and New Hampshire will have already occurred.
The test before us now is the first 6 states over the next 20 days. That's the test that matters. If we do not perform strongly in the first 6 states, we will be unable to raise the additional $23 million the campaign says will be necessary to be competitive on Super Tuesday, and if we are not, it will not matter how much we raised in 4th quarter.
