OpenEntrance - What’s Really Going OnWhat’s Really Going On

While Hilary is using her own stacksto fund her campaign, Obama is on pace to set a single month record by raising over $7 million since Tuesday. He raised over $3 million in the first 24 hours. The really interesting aspect is that 90% of the people that donate to Obama, donate less than $100. Some as little as $10 or $20.

The huge surge was caused by an e-mail sent out by Obama’s campaign, David Plouffe, asking for donations to match the $5 million the Clinton’s gave to their campaign. In the e-mail he estimates the Clinton’s may have to give up to $20 million to keep their campaign going. Bill better start booking speaking engagements or write a book real soon

Update: After checking back in the 10 minutes that it has taken to write this post, he has now raised $7.6 million! Wow!
