One day until An Obama Minute
As you might have heard, Obama is trying to raise one million dollars in a single minute, scheduled to happen tomorrow at exactly 1 PM EST.
Here's the NYT article:

And this is where you can check the progress or contribute yourself:

So far his hat has remained relatively empty (just over $23.000 currently), but I think the majority is supposed to donate at the exact minute, with possibility of "early doning" for those unable.
If he succeeds, that will undoubtedly prove that he is an elitist hot-shot, which is good for his opponents as well.

I dont think this was set up by the Obama campaign themselves.

No, it was set up by a guy named Scott Cohen.

When I did my early doning yesterday in the early afternoon, there were under $8000 raised; there are above $25000 now.
