Obama online donation website down...

[nradisic]

Americans have been so moved by Obama's speech that the Obama website is crashing. I've tried to donate several times, but the site is "down for maintenance". What a night!

2. They were worried about the website crashing

It was on Slashdot earlier this week. The Obama webmasters were worried about the site crashing during the week. I guess they didn't quite do enough.

4. it is up!! donate now!

Hi,

I just took the next step towards owning a piece of the political process; I made a donation to Barack Obama's presidential campaign.

But it's going to take more than just me and the others who've acted so far -- it's going to take a movement.

It's going to take millions of people working together to compete against John McCain and the RNC in all 50 states. They are raising more money than ever -- collecting huge checks from Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs who will do everything in their power to maintain their influence in Washington with a third term of George Bush's disastrous policies.

We're not going to play that game.

Barack Obama is not taking any contributions from Washington lobbyists or political action committees.

We're transforming the political process by bringing together millions of ordinary Americans in a campaign that's owned by no one but the people.

At this crucial moment in history, will you join us by making a donation?
