| Campaign Contributions and Influence.....
NPR was praising hell-a-ree today as the winner of the "silent primary" because she raised soooooo much money in the first quarter. The "Magic Negro" hasn't released his 'earnings' yet.
For what it's worth, Obama has a trick up his sleeve that should take presidential campaigning into a new realm. It's a direct contribution website that could bring the same amount or even more money with an extreme amount of political clout.
Try to imagine hell-a-ree with $100,000,000 in her chest that was paid for by rich and influential "special interest" contributors. Then imagine 20,000,000 individuals contributing $5.00 apiece through Obama's website.
The same amount of money; but with a very different level of influence.
