1. so, does he have to spend all this money before
the official selection of him as the Republican candidate? Is that why they've put the Republican convention later than normal?

5. Date of the convention
was later than normal to coincide with September 11. It's gonna be a huge photo-op where he takes advantage of the event. It'll be totally disgusting! I don't even want to think about it. Makes me sick to my stomach.

3. Convienent
He can raise X million for the primary and X million for the election...and pretty much spend both amounts at the same time given the Rethuglican late primary.

7. Geeze, with that kind of money they could run a complete moron
...and still win. I mean, they could just take a completely unqualified, unlikeable, dry drunk, mean spirited, proven failure of a man-- but with name recognition-- and win the election. Money can buy a lot of things.

8. He has quite few challengers
Like that Republican Challenger John Buchanan and some guy named Ashby.

I would like to see Pat Buchanan and Roy "10 Commandments" Moore challenge *.
