Okay. It's crunch time. Wednesday is the last day of the quarter. If you've ever wanted to make a real impact on a campaign, there are two ways to do it -- the best is to give your time. That's worth more than the $2,000 contribution limit. But barring your time, early cash is the next best thing.
In this installment, we have updated numbers from Newberry, Farmer and Matsunaka. The rest of the numbers are still from last Friday.
Richard Morrison (TX-22):
$24,317, 485 donors
Nancy Farmer (MO-Sen):
$19,507, 260 donors
There are still $3,398 left in matching funds for the Farmer campaign, operative until the end of the quarter. The next $3,398 in Farmer contributions do double duty, so let's take advantage of the offer.
Stan Matsunaka (CO-4):
$18,522, 443 donors
Tony Knowles (AK-Sen):
$10,278, 213 donors
Jeff Seemann (OH-16):
$7,171, 192 donors
(See Seemann's speech at the Kerry rally last Friday.)
Lois Murphy (PA-6):
$5,119, 142 donors
Jim Stork (FL-22):
$4,747, 126 donors
Jim Newberry (MO-7)
$3,618, 84 donors

I have a terrible net connection at my hotel. But once I get a more reliable connection I will make the following contributions today:
$50.01 for each dKos 8 candidates
$25.01 for Ben Konop (OH-4)
$25.01 for Samara Barend (NY-29)
$25.01 for Christine Cegelis (IL-6)
$25.01 for Joanna Conti (CO-6)
$25.01 for Brad Carson (OK-Sen)
$25.01 for Richard Romero (NM-1)
$25.01 for Jerry McNerney (CA-11) (The district adjoins mine, and it pisses me off to have a Republican-held district bordering Berkeley)
$25.01 for Patsy Keever (NC-11)
I really wish I was wealthy so I could add to that list. Candidates like
Melissa Bean (IL-8)
Steve Brozak (NJ-7)
Patty Wetterling (MN-6)
Diane Farrel (CT-4)
Bill Gluba (IA-1)
And I could keep going...
