Wait a second. Obama raised 150 million bucks last month? AND the DNC raised 50 million?

1. We can probably thank Sarah Palin for energizing the base.

Thank you Sarah for scaring the crap out of people that they gave $150 million to Barack!

[Whalestoe]

4. I know she scares the shit out of me!

6. "The Democratic National Committee, moments later, announced that it raised $49.9 million "

The Democratic National Committee, moments later, announced that it raised $49.9 million and had $27.5 million in the bank at the start of October. The party has been raising money through joint fundraising events with Obama and can use the money to assist his candidacy.

7. How much did McCain and the RNC raise? NT

8. RNC said they raised 60 million I believe.

McCain can't raise no more monneys.

[OmahaBlueDog]

10. Yes, but think: If McSame can't fundraise, and the RNC only got $60M

Compared with about 3 times that much for Obama and the DNC combined, that can't bode well for their side.

9. McCain uses public financing. He gets 84 million to use. RNC got 66 million in September.

And that's 84 million from September- November, not 84 million a month. So we have a HUGE fundraising advantage.

11. But they will cheat. How much free air time will the Corporate Controlled Media give them?

12. TRUE Public Financing at its best. nt
