Clinton has more donors than Obama

avatar

This just in: Hillary Clinton has raised money from 5,584 more donors that Barack Obama!  Well... only when you count those who donated $4,600 to her campaign.  But those are the only people that matter right?  If Obama's really so inevitable, why can't he close the deal with the superwealthy?

He's elitist!  And she's winning!  So stop saying the opposite!

Cool avatar. Just this past weekend I saw a large exhibit of Frida Kahlo's art at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Her art reflects many of the tragic aspects of her life-story. (I also mentioned this on another thread but I don't know if you saw it.)

You donate $4,600 when you think you have a mortal lock on the nomination and want to send a signal to the candidate. The second $2,300 is useless... it can't be spent until after the convention. (what a waste of 6 months interest)

The big money establishment thought they had it all wrapped up months and moths ago.

whooops.

I do not think Barrack is elitist, but many people are troubled by his remarks to the San Francisco crowd. Watch the video at the link below. Listen to the laughter. Well-off Democrats chortling with Barrack over his social commentary on why working class folks are not yet supporting him.Listen carefully to what they are laughing at: Is Barrack making fun of himself? or Is he sharing a joke at the expense of working class Americans.
Forget Rev. Wright. Watch the video that is sinking his campaign.: http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0408/Video_from_San_Francisco.html

And I have a link to a video of a speech he gave the afternoon of the so-called "biiter" speech. That should be shown as well. Its what he should have said later that night.

I'm not aware of a video being taken at this event. Only a muffled poor quality audio recording.

Yes indeed there is a video clip of the event.
The mainstream media has not aired it.
Check out the link :
