Mosley Braun seems to be having a little trouble raising money

Former Senator Carol Mosley Braun, who claims to be a Democratic presidential candidate, quietly released her Q1 fundraising totals yesterday.

The grand total for the first quarter of 2003? $72,000.

Only Carol Mosley Braun could make Dennis Kucinich look like a real candidate. After all, when he reported $180,000, I thought no one could do worse. Fortunately, we have the former Senator from Illinois who raised far less than half that even Kucinich took in.

Anyone who could help me understand why she’s in the race should contact me soon. I’m at a loss.
