3. Yeah, but Hillary's site says they're trying to raise $2.2 million in 48 hours to match Obama.
Let's get him MORE than that!

30. True. And I wish Obama would ask her during the next debate to release her tax return.
Or maybe the moderator will bring it up.

32. Luck won't have anything to do with it
Sen. Obama's campaign is running rings around Team Clinton, enjoying popular support across all demographic lines. Contrasting this is a catastrophically mismanaged campaign by Sen. Clinton that is demonstrating that there is no depth to which Team Clinton is not willing to sink in order to attain the nomination.

20. Well you'd be rich if you got a buck for each nasty/negative post you've made about Hillary.

edited to add...At least I'm not on your ignore list! You get an extra bonus for that. No one can say you're a coward like some people around here. That goes for both Obama supporters AND Hillary supporters who ignore everyone they disagree with. :hi:

I'm talking about the first one to me. Yup, I have nobody on my ignore list. No reason to do that. :hi:

13. Like Michelle Obama, I think I've given enough to ensure the primary win
Edited on Fri Feb-22-08 11:38 PM by I Vote In Pittsburgh
She has only donated $399, which is kind of interesting.

At this point, he's got it in the bag. Disagree with me if you like, but it won't make a dime of difference :)

15. I don't think he needs $$ right now. He has enough and will win the
party nomination. I suggest you wait for the general election. See what happens with the public funding dispute and all. There's always 527's and other groups that will crop up.

I don't know about you, but I don't have much $$ that I can afford to donate to any candidate. I think it's much wiser to wait until my $$ will make a difference.

17. I think he will need it. The Hillary camp is getting desperate. Who knows what they're going to
Edited on Fri Feb-22-08 11:46 PM by jenmito
pull between now and March 4th. I give $25 at a time. Maybe $125 total the entire time.

23. I disagree. Of course Hillary want's to win. But it has become
apparent that she's not going to. Sure she's asking her supporters for more $$, but I think there's just not enough supportes left to get her more $$, and even if they did, I don't think $$ is going to do it for her.

Im 64, and I've only contributed to 2 canpaigns in my life. Howard Deam and Joe Biden. If it looks like Barack needs ,pmeyu sometime during the general, I will send him $10. That the best I can do. Right now, I don't think he needs it.

31. Well, she seems not to be giving up, trying to raisie as much as Obama online...
Of course she will have fewer big donors as her chances slip away, but I don't put it past her people to slime Obama as hard as they can.

I don't want you to donate if you can't afford it. You need your money more than Obama does. That's for sure. :hi:

26. I just donated $100 - a third
of the tax rebate that will be coming. Will donate more later. He has a great ground game and that does take money along with the planning and the volunteers.

Today there was a matching donation going on.

wisely while working all the other aspects needed to be successful.

I made a donation last night and signed up to have a fundraiser page. I sent out emails with the link and I am nearing my goal. I might make another donation next week. I want to PACE myself due to the donation limits and such.
