Here is the reality.

If May turns out to be the greatest month in new donors in the history of campaigns and millions of people add up to $ 50 million new donatinos it will send a shockwave through the political landscape.

I have been waiting to pay off a few pressing bills but I know that if I start giving now that it will be interpreted as support for this position.

Anyone who makes their first Obama donation for this cycle will become a statistic, a very important statistic.
