Sources close to the Thompson campaign have passed along the following first-day results for ImWithFred.com:
Averaged close to 1,500 people per hour signing up as friends
Averaged $12,000 per hour in contributions
Raised more than $220,000 dollars via the website
Seen just under half of the Friends send a message to others asking them to sign up or give.
We'll see what traffic measuring services like Alexa say in a day or so, but this has to be considered a powerful shot across the bow.

Enjoy your carping now, but start looking up crow recipes, because you’ll be needing them.

In 100 days he would only receive $22mil.
It's not enough on it's own, at that level.

Yeah, But
A million Fredheads give a $100
Only takes 200,000 to give $500
Fred's coffers could very well be overflowing soon.

At this rate, Internet-only contributions would get to $100 million in about 360 days. However, it is patently absurd to believe that donations made via the web site are the only, and likely not even the primary, source of funding.

Money will not be an issue for Fred. Once he officially gets in, the money will flow like water.
