1. My wife and I
have donated over $100 to Obama's campaign. First time she's ever been the least bit involved in politics. As for me I was a bit afraid to donate because all the other times I've donated to a campaign my candidate lost, but I believe the jinx is over.

I now know that change is in the air big time. My wife and I, and even our kids, stop and listen to Obama whenever he's on TV - we've NEVER been nearly that interested in politics before. My wife is even volunteering with our county Obama office on Tuesday (I have to work), and she rarely even voted before (until I kept nagging her to do so and told her she's not allowed to complain about politicians unless she votes).

2. I donated a little bit, but a bunch of times.
Before that, Hillary was the first candidate I've ever donated to and I had donated to her once.

3. I maxed out in the Primary...
...but decided to wait and see if he needed more from me; Meanwhile, I've put $40,000 into House and Senate races.

4. Since I am out of work, I donated my time instead of money (which is in short supply)
I've worked 30 hours a week for the campaign.
