I heard That Obama's Campaign Will Release April's Donation Tally's Today And That It's Monstrous.
Late last night one of the pundits on MSNBC (African American Lady from some woman's group :-) ) said that Obama's campaign will be releasing April's numbers about his donations and cash on hand, and that it would be monstrous.


Anyone hear any word yet?

5. I heard...
...she's attacking Helsinki and now she's heading for the mainland!

Where's Rodan when you need him?

...or that big, giant tarantula?

9. I hear she's practicing with Four Roses, Jim Beam, and Wild Turkey.
If she'd done her homework, whe'd be doing J.T.S.Brown and practicing her bank shot.

4. On MSNBC last night...
...one of the pundits, who saw the numbers, said the figure was "astronomical."

Niiiiiiice.

6. I can't stand the waiting. You've got me intrigued now. Could it be
even bigger than the $55 mil he raised a couple of months ago? I think the official release date is the 20th? If I had good fundraising numbers, I would put them out there immediately, to change the media narrative.

7. I don't think it will be higher than his previous record....
Although nothing would surprise me.

12. Not release them ever, or today? I thought FEC rules required disclosure?
I know next to nothing about election law, but I thought the campaigns were required to make those numbers public.

13. I think they are due in a few days if I am not mistaken.
And with big amounts of donations comes big amounts of paperwork and accounting so they will likely use all the time they can get.
