Unlike Myth, Jon, Newt, Tim and Mitch, Gov. Sarah Palin doesn’t need to “build” an organization. She already has tens of millions of Americans that will jump at the chance to volunteer, donate, fundraise and do all the things needed to help her win. I myself will raise $2 million dollars for her campaign. Watch and see.

Ah, the old "my pol doesn't need to do what every pol in history has done" because he/she is so special. It took a remarkable organization to get Obama elected. Volunteers didn't just "come out" and "donate." They were organized by incredibly well run and staffed state and local organizations.

How about this: why don't you post 10 state Palin organizations/hqs up here so people can get involved. Give us the names of state directors. These things don't "happen." The last campaign that "happened" was Lincoln's nomination in 1860, and he had perhaps the shrewdest campaign manager in history. Money is nice, but Phil Gramm had more money than anyone else in the race back in the 1990s and he couldn't get past the first debate. Steve Forbes has more money than Palin can ever raise, and can't get to first base. But keep the delusion up that you can somehow just "turn on" a campaign (I think Fred Thompson's people were told that) and see what happens.
