were the Dean campaign to maintain a rate of 200,000/day in funds raised, that's 6 million+/month (except February?), and 18 million + for a quarter, or more than we have done in the past.
Expect that some endorsements will be pulled if Dean does not win at least one state on Tuesday - some politicians and organizations want to be perceived as backing the winner - it is the bandwagon effect. Don't be bitter, and tell them to keep their powder dry.
And by not spending a lot of money on advertising for the next week (and late term advertising is usually not all that cost-efficient) DEAN REMAINS ABLE TO HAVE RESOURCES IN HAND as others drop out of the process. Expect Lieberman to be gone after Tuesday - he will have earned the matching funds necessary to retire his campaing debt. If Clark does not win OK, he may be in big trouble for money, and if Edwards does not win SC (I think he will) he will be in big trouble as far as money.
The real question ... as others drop out, where will their supporters go? Will they give up the ghost and back Kerry, or are they still available to be had? Remember -- within the Democratic voter base, Kerry is nationally still favored by less than 40%... as the field narrows he could pick up more and get to the tipping point, or the opposition could coalesce around one main ABK candidate ... that's why rather than struggling for one or two wins on Feb 3 (which would be nice) it is important to be positioned to keep on going, regardless of the hits.
