Does the Edwards campaign know about our donation plans for tomorrow?

Can't help but wonder.

1. If they don't, they'll figure it out really quickly.

2. We told them about it in a conference call yesterday.They knew nothing about it

They said if we can do that we can have anything we need in Phoenix!

3. In Phoenix?

Sorry, don't understand.

4. I am in Phoenix. We had a Conference Call with Chapel Hill for the Edwards Campaign and

during the course of it , we mentioned the 7 million fundraiser. We had asked for lit and equiptment for Arizona and Phoenix that they couldn't provide. They said if the internet 7 million takes place, we could have anything we needed! That is all.

I believe in John.

7. Who do "we" and "our" refer to?

I thought this was an Edwards campaign initiative. Now people say the Edwards campaign didn't even know about it.

[Tennessee Gal]

8. My understanding has always been that this was an internet iniative.

Totally an independent effort. Independent of the official Edwards campaign. An effort to raise funds for Edwards and surprise even the media. An effort to make the media stand up and take notice that we are TOTALLY BEHIND JOHN EDWARDS FOR PRESIDENT.

13. Well, Let's Surprise Them With A BIG Present & A Big BOOST!!! n/t

10. Dunno about plans to follow it.

I plan to just go here: https://www.johnedwards.com/action/contribute/form/

make my donation, and post it somewhere here.

Please donate as much as you can using that site.

12. By the way, this originated on KOS.

Here it is:

Folks, we are trying to create a statement that makes it impossible for the news media to continue to ignore our candidate. We want to designate Friday Jan 18 as the day we break all records for a single day donation by raising $7,000,000 for John Edwards. Remember this amount will be matched.

From dkos: I would like to suggest Friday, January 18, as the day to shatter both the record and the media's tinted glass ceiling on coverage. This would give us all five days to publicize the effort. If successful, it should generate some press in time for the Sunday papers and news programs. Then on Monday, there is the debate in South Carolina, where Edwards could promote the results. This would then be followed by the primary on Saturday which, hopefully, would benefit from the newly enhanced press attention.

14. Yep you were up front about that the other day when you started this. And thanks, by the way. nt
