HRC To Announce Her Numbers At 2?

Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign has a telephone conference call set up for 2:00 pm ET today. One expects that they'll release their first quarter fundraising tally.

Remember: the only number that matters, for the purposes of measuring the output of the Clinton machine, is what they've raised this quarter. Not total CoH, not transferred money, not general election money.

Assuming the figure is around $26M, Clinton's team can genuinely point to an impressive haul. Assuming Sen. Barack Obama rolls within $5M of $26M, you'll understand why Clinton's campaign wanted to announce their historic tallies so early.

Would disagree about the COH figure. If the burn rate is too high then it could signal internal problems about management, chain-of-command, and budget control.
