Knowledgeable sources in Massachusetts tell The Daily Caller that Republican candidate for Senate, Scott Brown, has raised at least $1 million dollars every day this week, most of it online.

Although Brown’s campaign touted Monday’s money-bomb fundraiser that brought in $1.3 million dollars, the campaign declined to confirm totals for other days this week.

People are only giving that kind of money to someone who looks like a winner. Expect his fund-raising to go into overdrive by the time the MLK holiday weekend gets under way.

It's sounds as though Americans want Brown to win.

It must be lookin' bad for Martha when the House 'RATS have to help finance her campaign.

That is good but remember Dems have auto voters and get tons of spending from unions and Soros and stuff.

Its weird times like these that make me want to say:

Thank you President Obama for changing America’s political landscape.

Could this be the light at the end of an all too long anti conservative tunnel?

His fund raising snow-balled this week. Donors are jumping the Coakley sinking ship and getting behind the winner. Despite all this, Intrade still has him at 26.9 right now. This may be a good bet.

Its amazing to see this even being close. Independents do not like this woman. I don’t think the Dems do either. They wanted a coronation.

Plus all the oldsters and stuff the O and Reid and Pelosi have pissed off.

They have made a lot of people really mad.

But if its close, they will try to steal it.

“I hope he ends up with more money in the bank the the GOP. Those bastards haven’t helped in this effort.”

Perhaps among the reasons why it is successful?

Lol, I'd been wondering about that. When the online tally got to the $1.3 million, they just stopped it. I hope they have raised a million each day, and that they're using it wisely.

We'll see if there's movement on Intrade over the weekend. Cautious investors are still backing Coakley. Its a Democratic state after all.

From www.wordstream.com:
...But being a search marketer, I launched my own investigation to see if I could find out more information about the dynamics of this US Senate race based on internet marketing and social media metrics. The findings (based on data collected on January 14) were staggering.

The data suggests that conventional pollsters and Washington insiders have it completely wrong – that it won't be a tight race, and that State Senator Scott Brown will win by a landslide.

-- snip -

-- snip --

...So in summary, Scott Brown is way ahead in this race, with the following numbers:

10:1 Advantage in YouTube video views
4:1 Advantage in Facebook fans
3:1 Advantage in Twitter mentions
10:1 Advantage in estimated web traffic
-- snip --

...It could be that the average Coakley supporter doesn't use the internet or social media venues as much as the average Scott Brown supporter. Again: is it plausible that her supporters use social media 3 to 10 times less?

It's also noteworthy to point out that in November 2008, Alexa had Barack Obama with an estimated five times larger Web presence over John McCain – and President Obama was famous for his success in connecting with the electorate over Twitter, YouTube and Facebook – and he won that election in a landslide.

In summary, while the data might not be complete, all available signs in the Social Media sphere currently point to a pretty strongly to a win by Scott Brown next week.
