Subject: RE: BS: Kerry nails New Hampshire
Oops! I messed up the italics in my last post. I'll repeat the last part of it, corrected, here:

"(3) Kerry has taken more special interest money than any other senator in the last fifteen years."

What is the source of this assertion?


Washington Post, yesterday. I think it was on the front page, but it might have been a second page story. Definitely
not op-ed.

I don't give much credibility to Newsweek articles.

Okay. That's your choice. I think the article raises important questions.

Actually, Dean has more money in his coffers than Kerry at this
time. Let's see where he got it and how he'll spend it.


He got it mainly from hundreds of thousands of Americans like me. I am glad to see you acknowedge that Dean does have more money, though. So many of the media outlets are claiming he's washed up because his fundraising will dry up soon. But the great thing about being funded by folks like me giving twenty or fifty bucks at a time is that we aren't swayed to give money only to the front-runner in the hopes of gettng something out of it. We just want our guy to win, and we trust him to take it from there.

I'll address YOUR next post in MY next post!
