Subject: Bradley and McCain, what an election!!! (Guru).. Date: Thu, 30 Dec 1999 081317 -0600 (CST) From: "Roy L. Beavers"To: emfguru -------------------------------------------------- .......Bradley and McCain -- what a marvelous election that would be!!! Both are men of integrity and guts. Both are INDEPENDENT of the special interests. Both represent the best of their "side" of the political spectrum -- Bradley the liberal side, McCain the conservative side.... It would give this **still young** democracy a real shot in the arm to have such a national campaign in progress next fall..... We need a "shot in the arm" -- something to revive the "democratic/republic" spirit..... That spirit is a fragile thing -- if it is not fought for ... it can easily disappear...... As it has been in recent years..... Cheerio..... Roy Beavers (EMFguru) roy@emfguru.com .....It is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness..... NEW!!!

Meanwhile, Sen. John McCain doubled his previous quarterly fund-raising mark, taking in $6.1 million from the beginning of October to the end of December as compared to $3 million during the previous three months. Bradley reported Wednesday that he has raised more than $8 million since Oct. 1, bringing his total for the year to more than $27 million. Gore, on the other hand, raised just $4 million, bringing his total to $28 million, plus an additional $2.7 million to pay legal and accounting costs for the general election.

John McCain reported Wednesday that he had taken in $6.1 million from the beginning of October to the end of December. Overall, McCain has raised $13.6 million for his presidential campaign, plus an additional $2 million transferred from his Senate campaign. McCain also is eligible to receive $4.2 million in federal funds, bringing his total to $19.8 million. The campaign said it had $1.5 million in the bank. The final year-end numbers will be filed with the Federal Election Commission Jan. 31. From July 1 to Sept. 30, McCain raised $3 million for his presidential campaign. But his fund raising has surged as he moved up in opinion polls; he is ahead or tied with Republican frontrunner George W. Bush in several New Hampshire surveys.
