Dang! Last night I guessed Ron's money bomb would be about $560K. Pretty good guess. I wonder what the campaign was expecting, what signal this may send, and how it may affect their strategy.

The time for symbolic meanings of moneybombs is long over. I would hope the campaign knows this. At this point, it is all about getting money that is desperately needed. And come Sunday night, it will likely have brought in somewhere between $900,000 and $1 million much needed money.
Setting unrealistic expectations like $2 million in one day just leads to disappointment. With half the states done, there is no way the donations will pour in like they did in November-January. The casual donations are going to stay away, and many of the die hards have maxxed their donations already. $600,000 is definitely not a disappointment unless they expected too much. (certainly better than that recent joke of a RevPac moneybomb that hoped for $1 million in 12 hours and ended up with about $20,000)
