OK, this is going to be light. And short. But it's just sitting there!
can we create a Magical Obama Money Machine? Yeswecan!
The acronym is MOMMY..... Which is what McCain will be yelling when we steam roll him and his Bushites.
Can we do it? Yes we can!
Barack Obama has shown an unprecedented ability to raise money. Lots of money. More money than any primary candidate ever. More than Hillary and her money machine.
So far? As of 4/30/2008 He's raised.... get ready...
$264,493,051.
That's $265 MILLION dollars
That's just about a dollar per person for every man, woman and child in the United States.
Oh, and it's all come from men, women, and children. Because the amount he's gotten from PACs is listed as $-750. That's right. The FEC lists Obama has having given more to PACs than he has gotten.
And it's not all coming from rich folk, either.... $122 million came from people who gave $200 or less. Only $64 million came from those lucky enough to be able to max out (over $2000). And another $34 million from those who gave between $1000 and $2000.
How about McCain?
His total raised is $90 million. Including almost $1 million from PACs. Only $28 million from those giving less than $200, and $38 million from those giving the max (or nearly).
That means that, using just the money from those giving less than $200, we'd still be ahead of McCain.
Can we create a Magical Obama Money Machine? Yeswecan!
MOMMY! That's what McCain will be yelling!
Mommy mommy, the Democrats have more money than we do! It's not fair.
HA!
Mommy mommy, he's spending so much money telling the truth, where's our money for spreading lies?
HA!
Mommy mommy! They're staffing all 50 states!. We can't afford that!
HA HA HA!
But it's not magic. That money didn't appear from nowhere, or from some PAC, or some lobbyist. Nope. It came from US! Americans! Democrats! Kossacks!
So, let's keep McCain yelling for mommy! Let's keep that Magical Obama Money Machine rolling! Can we do it?
YES WE CAN!
Donate now!
Clinton supporters!
Donate now!
Obama supporters
Donate now!
All real Americans
Donate now!
Because we want our country back!
And, to keep McCain yelling for Mommy, I'll match the first $200.
