3. Which lobbyist?
I've read about him politely rejecting an attempted donation to a registered lobbyist, but not about any that have been accepted. Have there been any?

25. Some people can't see the forest because of the trees.
:eyes:

Obama has ties to lobbyists despite boasts of not taking their money.

26. You obviously didn't read what I just wrote.
Having "ties to lobbyists" does not equal "taking money from lobbyists". I've kept birds as pets, but that doesn't mean that I can fly.

6. Not yet...
It was just released so I imagine it will be playing soon, since
Obama's campaign has the money to play it.

15. If you do please use the DU candidate donation system!
It allows a basic form of stats.

18. I hope in runs in PA. I've seen Hillary's "bitter" ad three times today already.
And it figures that the battery in my remote control went dead 2 days ago.

19. His campaign is doing an outstanding job with these
videos and campaign spots. There's some real talent there.

24. This is going to make some lobbyists pretty bitter.
And the Clintons too.
