At 2pm EST there are 76,000 donors to the Obama campaign and counting. Who knows how many more will join over the next 34 hours? As we countdown to the March 31st first quarter fundraising deadline, Obama supporters are not only donating money but they gathering in living rooms across America on Saturday afternoon to meet and greet each other.
And after a week of marginal press, there are two fantastic articles in the Nation and the Chicago Tribune that are worth a read.
