The Money Chase (Update)
Edited on Wed Dec-31-03 02:16 AM by Bucky
Dickie remains the least appreciated (or most underestimated) fundraiser among DUers. He's smashed his record better than any other candidate pushing for a big 4th Quarter pay off. He's a cool quarter mil past his goal and still going. He's the hare in this race. Tortoise, my ass.

. . . .
(and no, that tortoise is not as ugly as an ass)

Wesley's just flew thru the finish line, too, with $80,000 and 23 hours to spare. Whatever comes in now is gravy.



These here below are Dennis's light bulbs. The one and a half unlit lights are the $150,000 he's wanting to raise before the year's end.




Howard's closing in on his target, but he's making it a close one. 23 hours left and $170K to go. As Joey Ramone used to say, "Beat on the brat, beat on the brat, beat on the bat with a baseball bat! (*sniff* I miss you Joey)




Oh, and speaking of Joes. Uh, oh. Oh Joe, Joe, Joe... What's wrong there, little buddy? Work a little harder and I'm sure you'll fill 'er up for that additional $140,000 by midnight Wednesday.



And of course Carol, Al, and people named John continue not to publicize their earnings or lack there of.



. . . . . . And here it is! Post #1000! Yee-freekin-hawww!!

1. I know, it is great for Gep
There aren't many people who like Gep at DU, but in the real world he has a lot of support. His fundraising might not be in Clark or Dean's class, but he is doing better than I thought he would.

2. I think a lot of us on-line types discount his union roots
They're not online, they can't be real people. Hogwash. Gephardt's got a lot of love in the rank and file who work, vote, and don't have time to piddle around on the internet like me. Like Bill Maher said, "It's not surfing! It's typing!"

5. I agree
I think Gephardt will surprise a lot of people, and win Iowa.

3. Well
Dr. Dean got $135 of my money tonight. Our little house party netted a little over $1000. Not bad for 28 mostly retired, working class people. Overall with 1,400 parties, we got more than a milion tonight.
