Not sure. I do know that we're in a much different economy today than we were back in 2008 (unless you're talking about McCain's 2010 Senate re-election campaign)

Yep. And they surged ahead in the polls, until the anniversary of 9/11, after which they never led again, and proceeded to self-destruct.

I believe she did in the first week if I remember. I did a quick check and found that McCain reportedly pulled in 8 million in the immediate week after Palin was nominated and the RNC reported a 1 million haul. Going at the rate the fundraising is currently by the end of the first week Ryan will have surpassed the initial Palin boost to McCain. We all should be doubly motivated to give now. If we can’t outspend Obama and thats what keeps him alive then shame on us.
