Obama's $$$$$$
This, from the Obama campaign:
Chicago, IL- The Obama for America campaign today announced that it will report raising at least $25 million from more than 100,000 people in the first quarter of 2007, with at least $23.5 million eligible to be spent in the Democratic primary.
“This overwhelming response, in only a few short weeks, shows the hunger for a different kind of politics in this country and a belief at the grassroots level that Barack Obama can bring out the best in America to solve our problems,” said Obama for America Finance Chair Penny Pritzker.
The Obama campaign raised $6.9 million over the Internet from more than 50,000 donors.
All of which is very nice, but it's now time to find out what the candidate actually stands for. As Donna Brazile told me a few weeks ago, "We know he can walk on water. Now what about the loaves and fishes?"
