Obama nearing 1 million donors

[I Vote In Pittsburgh]

Here is a snippet from an email he wrote to me:

We learned something extraordinary since I wrote to you last night.

We've crunched all the numbers and discovered that we are within striking distance
of something historic: one million people donating to this campaign.

Think about that ... nearly one million people taking ownership of this movement,
five dollars or twenty-five dollars at a time.

We're already more than 900,000 strong, including over half-a-million donating so
far this year. This unprecedented foundation of support has built a campaign that
has shaken the status quo and proven that ordinary people can compete in a political
process too often dominated by special interests.

Unlike Senator Clinton or Senator McCain, we haven't taken a dime from Washington
lobbyists or special interest PACs. Our campaign is responsible to no one but the
people.

It's striking that he gets this money from so many people, and yet Roveanites attack him by dubbing him a "corporate whore." Despicable, but I'm a proud donor and won't let the negativity get to me. :beer:

3. I'm responsible for $200 of his total......

....which leaves me $2100 more if the B-man ends up needing it.


If not... I'll hold off until the general.

5. But I thought he got all his money from fat cat corporations.

Suck on that Clinton supporters.
