I wish a high roller would come in and bid a million bucks or more as a donation to these causes. Ried and the other forty would be mortified.

Impossible, as they have no shame.

Could happen.

Someone might do just that. But don’t expect it until the auction is almost over. That’s when you’ll see many people, some who haven’t bid even once, enter the fray if this follows the pattern of other auctions.

Consider this $41,000 a nice deposit on thr final numbers.

Let’s pray someone does. =)

Actually, it would take two high rollers. If there's just one, the final bid price would be only one bid increment ($100) over the next highest bid. Thus, if someone bids $50,000 and someone tops that bid with a $1M bid, the final price would be $50,100. Still, this outcome is a strong possibility, as is the possibility of libs posting phony astronomical bids (in spite of the vetting process) simply to screw up the process and make Rush look bad.
