| McCain gets $5 million in Chicago |
|
I saw a story today (sorry I am too inept to know how to link) saying McCain raised $5 million in a Chicago fundraiser! In just five hours!
How does a candidate raise that much at a fundraiser while still abiding by election laws? How does that process work?

so he can't raise money for his campaign only the RNC. Opting out may prove a big mistake for Obama. http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/09/sarah-palin-m-1.html |

...i'm from chicago, and you can count the number of repukes in that city on one hand. if McCorpse was fundraising in the inner city he wouldn't raise 5 cents let alone $5million.
