An in an email to Santorum campaign supporters Sunday, senior strategist John Brabender asks for urgent donations in an attempt to raise $250,000 before midnight Sunday in order to air an ad on Fox News. “If we don’t reach our goal by midnight, we won’t be able to get our ad on the air until later this week,” reads the email. “That delay will mean Mitt Romney’s negative attacks will run unopposed for days.”

Brabender’s pitch is Santorum’s big win in Louisiana Saturday:

The exit polls in Louisiana shared some interesting information – when people can get to know the real Rick Santorum, he wins in almost every polled category.  Rick won Tea Party voters, conservatives, moderates, liberals and every income group except one: people making over $200,000 a year (Mitt Romney won this group, but it was close).
