| madskillz said: The numbers - $4.5 vs. $5M The numbers? $4.5M is the amount that Obama raised last night off the Internet. 5M is the amount that Hillary gave to her campaign to keep it going. No joke - she gave herself a loan! Some of her staffers have decided to *forego* their salaries for a week or two. Sound familiar? Guiliani, anyone? Clinton's fighting hard, but she's hurting. Obama raised $32M in January, and $4.5M last night. Folks BELIEVE in him. Never, ever have I seen a campaign that could lose - except the Deanites - raise some much loot so fast. Even Hillary acknowledged he was raising mad loot. Last night proved one thing - Obama is the truth. Hillary may win in the end, but she's running out of steam fast. |
That $4.5 million number since the polls closed on Feb. 5 has since risen to $5.8 million and is still climbing rapidly -- in a few minutes it went up another $100,000. I think it's hilarious that Clinton writes herself a check for $5m, and Americans immediately write Obama a check for an even greater amount.
