Great opportunity

I am relieved that Super Tuesday is behind us because our resources (time and money) were so divided between the national campaign and working the grassroots in so many local areas. Now is the time to pull together for the remaining states (without any competition from any other campaigns). Our fundraising is now where it was for the entire 3rd quarter of last year, and better than 4th quarter before November 5th. Without having to spend our dollars locally (in states that have voted) there is no reason we can't top $20 million this quarter as long as we have a UNIFYING goal and some solid grassroots direction. HQ didn't get us where we are, we did, but there were too many divisions about blimps vs. money bombs vs. local chip-ins, etc.

Who has the grassroots plan for reaching the millions of voters who still want the chance to say that McCain is NOT their choice? The MSM wants to disenfranchise half the country and we have the solution. Money bombs worked to get attention before, now the media will have to notice the concerted effort of the campaign that won't give up as it translates into votes. Imagine the effect of Students Christmas break in Iowa if there had been no Romney, Giuliani, Thompson, or Hunter to share the stage. Imagine New Hampshire. Without Romney, Ron Paul won Wyoming and Nevada, but not without all the work from the boots on the ground. There is so much "Hope For America" in this campaign. Some of us are battle fatigued, but we are also trained, and willing to do what it takes for the win that will spread hope to the rest of the Republican party that the race is not over.
