In the first reporting period (just about four weeks), she raised $2.2 million to his $300K - just destroyed him. In this period (about seven weeks), she raised $1.9 million to his $1.8 million, so she saw a minor dip in the rate of donations, while he saw a huge increase.The Senatorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10546483248012172478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2104390455298756821.post-34440094599089975232009-11-19T22:01:33.839-05:002009-11-19T22:01:33.839-05:00I'm not getting how Coakley is sliding and Capuano is up if she raised more money than he did, whether it was 1.9 million or over 4 million. In either case, she is way ahead of him cumulatively and continues in the lead for the second reporting period. This is especially significant because we know that the old boys' network is definitely kicking in.ellenfriedmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06433002113944476443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2104390455298756821.post-33631257668971166482009-11-19T00:17:08.925-05:002009-11-19T00:17:08.925-05:00I had heard that Capuano was getting alot of money from Washington cronies instead of from inside the state. Is that true?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
