Methinks JimBob holds off on announcing totals for desperation purposes. Almost every freepathon starts out slow, to the point of worrying members and making them post comments such as the above, then at the final moment some miraculous large donation from a deep red state pushes them to 100% and they reach the goal. I don't buy it.

Now, what he does with that money- considering their website is basically a 1998 html bulletin board- that may be another story...
