If he really needs 100 million in a year this needs to be a typical day not a good day. $300,000 a day with 300 fund raising days a year would leave him $10 million short.

He'll have some better fundraising days, no doubt.
I thought, reading here, that there was some huge pent-up demand for him declaring. $300,000 on his announcement day after a flurry of ads on FNC (and probably elsewhere), a good appearance on Leno to announce, all the positive media coverage he could ask for, well, I just assumed he'd raise like $5-$10 million on the first day, I guess.
While 300K is nothing to sneer at, I'd point out that at a fundraiser in TX at the straw poll, Dr. Paul raised $102,000 in one evening at a private home.
No doubt, Fred will raise some serious money. But I really did think he'd raise more than this after so much buildup. I wonder how the other candidates are doing in fundraising.
