2. If his staff haven't told him about this money bomb, then he ought to find a new staff.

This is an amazing moment, and let's hope this money helps kick that neo-fascist freak out of the House.

3. He made a statement earlier about Bachmann TV comments

But it would be smart of him to send something out now for general distribution.

Surely he has to know.

4. It's tough to beat an incumbent--you can't raise any money $80170

[beac]

5. Just went over $80K!!

I hope he's getting a good night's sleep so he can be rested and ready to spend that $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ tomorrow!!!

[saltpoint]

6. This is a good guy running against an abominable incumbent.

I love it that he's gotten a huge boost in the kitty tonight on the fact that Bachmann is such a fascist dolt.

[WA98296]

7. Just went to $81,161

[NanceGreggs]

8. Oh.My.God.

This story is just so fuckin' amazing!

Imagine being on his campaign staff, and suddenly the money just comes pouring in faster than you can count it!

WAY TO GO!!!

[saltpoint]

9. Damn liberals! They've infested all those tubes!

:hi:

[FVZA_Colonel]

12. He's become a cause celebre.

And I mean that in the utmost postive terms (I've seen it used sarcastically before.)

[saltpoint]

19. Yes. And I love t that he had no idea this morning that

anything like this would happen tonight.

This is top-drawer stuff. I just listened to the HARDBALL clip again and sent in another donation.

We'll all be better off without Michelle Bachmann in the 111th Congress.

[NanceGreggs]

14. Hey, my friend!

Isn't this FANTASTIC?!?

:hi:

[saltpoint]

18. Nance, it is a Boston Tea Party, kinda.

I'm having a great time!

[NanceGreggs]

20. I KNOW, I KNOW!!!

About to throw some tea into the harbour myself, and it's an exhilarating feeling!!!

[NanceGreggs]

24. Just threw some tea $$$ ...

... and the feeling was downright orgasmic!!!!!

:smoke:

[saltpoint]

25. Excellent!

[alwysdrunk]

29. Like I said, let them have the radio...

we have the INTERNET!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

13. You have mail!

[Why Syzygy]

10. I just donated .. from Texas.

Never even been to MN.

[Sugarcoated]

11. I hope it reaches a million

[vaberella]

15. He needs to get on Rachel Maddow's and KO's show!! I know they already called him.

16. In 2006, Tinklenberg supported the idea of impeaching George Bush

Here's a quote of his from the Internet:

"I would support a resolution for impeachment if it was brought to me. I would not introduce one." (May 10, 2006)

I don't know how liberal he is and he probably has to walk a difficult line as his district is conservative. But almost anyone would be better than Bachmann at this point.

[KathieG]

17. This is fantastic!

:applause:

[LSK]

21. 83000+ now, just sent 25

[DrToast]

22. This reminds me of Obama raising $10 million after Palin's speech.

On a smaller scale, of course, but still pretty cool.

[Indiana_Dem]

23. I donated $25! Feels good! nt

[WA98296]

26. Has now broken the $85,000 mark
