wonderful. now for the next $998 million. since they say O will raise $1 bill
Ten million people donating, on average, $100.00 to Sarah Palin's presidential campaign will equal $One Billion.
Ten million contributors is not such a stretch, considering she alone pulled in the second half of McCain's 58.3 million votes in 2008, and in 2010 she rallyed the greatest Republican gains in 80 years and the greatest conservative gains in the history of the USA.
Her campaign won't require that much money to run. However, the impact on the establishment opposition of her raising that much money will be profound.
For comparison, the RNC currently has about $40 Million in cash and $24 Million in debt. It is costing the RNC sixty cents in fundraising costs for every dollar raised. The RNC doesn't have enough money to run one Senate campaign in a medium-sized state. At this point of the election cycle, the RNC should have close to a Billion in reserves, and they don't. Ordinary Americans have turned off the money valve to the establishment.
When the RNC dudes call, I politely explain to them that I won't be contributing to either the RNC, RSCC, RCCC, or to any establishment candidates. My money is going to Sarah Palin and a few other conservative congressional candidates. Their reply is that they are hearing a lot of the same message.
