Thanks for adding to my list of "People Who Can't Campaign Their Way Out of a Paper Bag" (the trick is not wearing the bag on your head as a badge of honor, which is a strategic choice I wish Cynthia Coffman would make). Unfortunately, my list has way too many Democrats on it at this point. If you need me, I'll be vacationing in Boulder where you don't have to be smart to win.
Small typo – you mean "4-digit number" not 5-digit number in OP.
Can't we please get one decent Democratic AG candidate?!? Now!!!
(. . . And, no — more money will not make Mr. Quick any better a candidate . . .)
For all the hand-wringing, Don Quick has more than twice the cash on hand of either his opponents (and more than any other Democratic candidate not named Hickenlooper).
The animus toward Don Quick from our hosts, whatever its source, is well-documented. But the idea that the candidate with twice as much cash on hand is doomed for financial reasons doesn't pass a simple math test.
Let me just clarify this for you. A Democrat running against, not one, but two Republicans who both outfundraised him by 33% each. I don't care how slowly Mr. Quick spends his $120 K in cash on hand, he's not gonna win a statewide race by throwing down the mic after tripping over his own shoe laces and calling it a "show."
Surely you're not trying to make a serious argument about cash-on-hand numbers. Don Quick SHOULD have more cash-on-hand than any other Democrat aside from Hickenlooper — he's the only Democrat who has had three fundraising quarters already.
Pennywise should not be allowed to campaign.
What about http://www.jimrundberg.com ?
The link you provided answers your question.
At a recent event, Waller was saying that he outraised the other two candidates but if you look at his campaign finance report, he transfered almost 20 % of what he reported from his House District 15 account when he first filed to run. I'm thinking that's money raised in previous elections, is it not? If that's the case, he raised about 52k 3rd quarter and Don Q isn't that far behind in fundraising!
Of course he isn't. And, in Don (who is my father–just for the sake of transparency) first quarter he raised over 52,000 dollars, on par with Mark Waller.
I am not just invested in this race because of family ties. I know that my right to get married hinges on this race. I know that the rights of our children to quality public education and a healthy environment hinge on this race
My dad's team is working hard on a campaign to fight for environmental and social justice in Colorado, if you want to make wildly hyperbolic statements (i.e. "death knell of his campaign") do as you wish, but if I were you I would be focused on–as Democrats–giving us a helping hand.
