2. $100 each times 1 million donors
eat your hearts out Wall Street.

You can support Mitt the Layoff Artist all you want.

4. and ahead of the last schedule too...by several months!
Rove has 3 donors that probably donated the same amount as thos Obama donors. But in that case, those three donors translates to a lot less voters. 999,997 less voters.

7. If we keep up this pace, we might hit 1.5 mil before it's over.

5. Considering the negative press or lack of it, anyone think the M$M will cover this favorably?
I know he won't catch a break from the professional left, but the real media covers every nutty thing the GOP has to say, and the president gets no love. Maybe he should come up with more nonsensical one liners, or say ridiculous things like "electric fence", and he'll get more love? :shrug:

9. Nope - remember when they were all giddy when he lost some 30,000 Twitter followers?
You can even google "President Obama Twitter Followers" and the top hits are all about that loss.

But he quickly regained them and then some.

Did they report that just as eagerly? Nope.

Did they report that he's #3 in followers behind Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber? Nope.

Nothing to make him look good compared to the GOP field. It's all about tearing him down.

10. Everything you said is the truth, and nothing but the truth.
And no one can claim it's merely a figment of our collective imaginations either. We have proof:

Frenchie used to post hot links & contact info to various media outlets. She hasn't done it in awhile, and I completely understand why. Some days, the only thing that distinguishes this place from a GOP hate site is the name. :hi:

12. Can't be true. I read it right here on the DU that small supporters were abandoning
the Obama campaign by refusing to donate.

Read it right here, and those posting about it rubbed their hands in glee over it.

Funny dat.

Seems reality has its own bias.

13. Can't be true...
no way they can be at 1 million donors without the 50 or so DU'ers who've said they're not donating this time around.

17. I don't even think it's 50. More like a couple dozen really obnoxious folks who
post 300 times a day so that it just FEELS like 50 people. :)
