ha ha! I looked up Fred’s 7 million plus story and the site said that I was looking for something that wasn’t really there!
Is this a bad omen? HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Thompson will report between 7-10 million, my sources tell me. That is a respectable amount that I am very pleased with. My largest concern earlier was that he would get outraised by McCain, which would possibly be a lethal blow, but fundraising has gone extremely well.
Rudy, reports say, is going to report close to 10 million. With a fundraising team that has just gotten in place like Thompson’s, that is strong.

jrcutler,

Why does race42008.com still not have a daily section for Huckabee?
September 29th, 2007 at 3:05 pm
Peter,
When Mike Huckabee can muster a measly 5 percent in three consecutive national polls, such coverage and attention to his candidacy would then be warranted. His RCP average is currently 4.5 percent. With Gingrich now officially out of contention, perhaps this time next week Huckabee will have earned his own section. For the sake of perspective, according to Intrade, bettors are saying Huckabee has a 2% chance of winning the nomination. That, in my estimation, is a generous assessment; about 1.99% too high.
jrcutler,
Thanks…I fixed the link.

Tommy,
“Thompson will report between 7-10 million, my sources tell me. That is a respectable amount that I am very pleased with.”
It would be HUGE if Thompson could hit 10 million and tie Giuliani if that was the case. Hopefully, for your sake, it is more than wishful thinking!

in response to Aron:
Mike Huckabee has finished very well (first and second) in several straw polls. He is leading McCain in Iowa. He deserves his own daily section.
