President Bush raised more money in the past three months than all nine of his Democratic rivals combined, according to reports filed with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) yesterday, opening up a huge financial advantage that is likely to continue throughout the 2004 election campaign.

1. those who think shrub is finished ...
... must note that bush has not yet begun to spend.

when the dollars really flow, shrub's popularity will rise. no two ways about it.

we MUST develop an underdog strategy NOW and be ready for the bucks!

2. yeah...
IN some ways, though, this is expected. The awesome thing would be if he had to spend it in primaries (Pat Buchanan for President, for instance) But we can't rely on that.

4. once again...
we need to all get up off our asses and contribute to the ePatriots fund so that the eventual dem nominee will have as big a war chest as Bush....

I cant say this enough times....

If 1.25 million dems give $160 over 32 weeks, we have our 200 million....

That's $5 a week for 32 weeks for 1.25 dems...if we cant raise this kinda cash we ARE PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!!! and deserve to loose...
