“...Perry isn’t going away...”

That’s good news, I’d like to see him continue. It’s good for the process and it’s good for America.

The pace is even more impressive. Perry had 49 days in which to raise funds, rather than the full 92 days of the quarter, a rate of about $349,000 a day. The final debate in September didn’t hurt Perry’s fundraising rate, either. In the 42 days prior to the Orlando debate, their rate was $323K per day; in the eight days following the Orlando debate, that escalated to $478K per day. Perry’s on-line operation did well, too, drawing in $1.1 million — despite, as my source says, not driving contributions with their on-line ads.

17.1 million buys a lot of of hairspray. Thanks, but no thanks. Between LBJ, a couple of Bushes, and the Texan’s love of mexican slave labor, I’ll pass on El Presidente Ricardo. Maybe he has a shot at winning the elections down there, here not so much.

Yup, he likes big donors, with "needs," donors who give money to both sides depending upon who can deliver the goodies. And you cheer (shakes head).

So, what's it going to cost us this time?

Excellent news. It will take a ton of money for defeat Romney and Perry is the only one capable of it at this point. Hopefully these numbers will persuade the big bundlers to hold up on going to Romney and give Perry a chance to continue to make his case.

Whether anybody likes it or not Perry will be the nominee and beat Obama with Palin as energy secretary drilling in Pelosi’s back yard.Christie would have been a powerhouse to beat appealing to democrats and moderates.I heard on some show last night that Christie was told there is not enough time now that primaries have changed; even for him.I am not a huge Christie fan because I don’t know what he is all about (A lot here are always so jumpy with the everybody but Palin is a RINO) but Christie is pro life and has the gusto and wide appeal of Reagan; so I don’t dismiss him. but him not jumping in gets me nervous as Obama will have a challenger.The marxist left has taken the democratic party so the challenger will be a progressive like Hillary.But if they throw in a Bayh anyone but Christie will struggle. America woke up to the Clintoons and Hillary’s glass ceiling appeal won’t do it.She sold Az. out to the UN and her recent diss of Israel will make it impossible for her to play a moderate fake Bill Clinton Hail Mary pass.

Now to be fair, some GOP candidates also raised mammoth amounts of cash, and we need to ask them, too: What, if anything, do their donors expect in return for their “investments”? We need to know this because our country can’t afford more trillion-dollar “thank you” notes to campaign backers. It is an important question, and it cuts to the heart of our problem

That money’s going to be needed against the mountain that Obama’s sitting on... (and his loyal toadies in the press)

Money wont matter, Perry will not be elected, I would choose Romney over Perry, but Cain is my guy. The truth is the GOP elites were hoping for Christie to eat up several months worth of new cycles to detract from Cains message, but now the very day after he said “No” (and they are pissed believe me) the new is PERRY HAS TONS OF MONEY,HE’S THE ONE, HE’S THE ON. Although in every poll, even some new national ones out today Perry is out of the race and Cain is tied with Romney. Money ain’t going to win this race, the internet is making that a non-issue.

From the locked thread:

This site is not a Romney-friendly site - so I guess they can’t come right out & say that they are shilling for Romney.

You can say that again. I predict a number of mitten's supporters well be getting the zot here. I know Jim Rob warned a couple of them this week.

Rick Perry Campaign Raises More Than $17 Million in 49 Days

Posted on October 5th, 2011

More than $15M Cash on Hand; Donations from all 50 states, D.C., Guam; 51 percent of donors from out of state

AUSTIN – RickPerry.org, Inc. today announced it raised more than $17 million for the GOP primary race between Aug. 13 and Sept. 30 from more than 22,000 unique contributors. Because of his August 13th entry into the race, Gov. Perry raised funds for just 49 of the 92 days in the quarter.

“The generous contributions from Americans across the nation prove the overwhelming support for Gov. Perry’s principled, conservative leadership and vision to get America working again,” said Perry Campaign Manager Rob Johnson. “The governor will continue travelling the country talking directly to Americans about restoring our economic strength, job creation and putting our country on a path to prosperity and opportunity for future generations. Gov. Perry deeply appreciates the energetic support and hard work of the thousands of Republican volunteers and activists who’ve helped us build a strong and growing organization in just seven weeks.”

Donations were received from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and Guam, with 51 percent of donors from outside the state of Texas. As of Sept. 30, the campaign has $15 million cash on hand. All but approximately $50,000 raised will go towards the primary race.
