So, Fred Thompson's first month of fundraising is in — per Politico — and the results aren't great: $3 million plus. According to a Thompson email release, the non-campaign's burn rate is "below 20% - far below the other candidates." ("Other candidates"? Doesn't that make Fred Thompson a "candidate"--ed Who woulda thought. Now, get back to Kaus's blog. You annoy me.)
That burn rate, if accurate, would put Mr. Thompson around $2.4 million cash on hand — ahead of John McCain, significantly behind the other serious candidates.
