And he still has to contend with Rispone’s millions which are going to do quite a bit for name recognition Rispone.

Money may not buy an election but it sure can give you a good head start and if the money is equally matched, it can be anyone’s race.

Money is money regardless of where it comes from.

And that’s more than JBE raised at this point in 2015.

There is a reason Kennedy and Landry decided to sit this one out.

You’re ignoring other factors like their current situation which they may be comfortable with, their own weaknesses as a candidate that has nothing to do with JBE and other structural issues.

I like the point you're making overall. But this rebuttal is silly. You're comparing the race in 2015 to 2019 and the cash on hand numbers from 2019 to 2015 and that's simply non-analogous.

This isn't 2015. It's 2019. He's running against an opponent with $12 million dollars and a unified party apparatus dedicated to his re-election and a huge capacity for further fundraising on a national scale (as the DNC will throw everything they have into retaining a Deep South Governorship if they detect true heat coming to unseat him).

You should either bury that rebuttal or come up with a better one, because it sounds silly. He's not running against the same candidate JBE was and he's definitely not doing that now.

Again I like what you're saying overall. But this is a silly point.
