Elizabeth Warren raised more than $3 million in a little more than six weeks to fund her Senate bid in Massachusetts, her campaign announced Monday.

The astounding figure anchors the notion that Warren will be a formidable candidate both in the Democratic primary and — if she wins the primary — against Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.).

The campaign pulled in $3.15 million in total, with more than 11,000 people in Massachusetts pitching in. Warren also demonstrated the ability to cast a wide net instead of relying on big-figure donations; Only one in 20 contributions were for more than $100, the campaign said.

"With the big banks and special interests lining up against us, we know it's going to take a strong, grassroots campaign to win," Warren said in an email to supporters.

4. if she doesn't win, Obama should give her Geithner's job; then we won't have to prosecute Wall St.

the guilty parties will just keel over dead.

5. The banksters will just see this as a challenge

Soon, they will be sending trailer trucks full of our taxpayer money to Scott Brown to fight her off.

I hope the voters of Massachusetts are smarter than that, although I fear this is going to turn nasty very quickly.
