Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton raised a stunning $3.5 million last night within hours of winning Pennsylvania, and her campaign says today's total may reach $10 million, giving her run a needed boost as she tries to knock Sen. Barack Obama from his front-runner perch.
The two campaigns are up with their spin this morning, with each focusing on the next races and arguing they can win in November.
Mr. Obama won a new endorsement from Oklahoma Gov. Brad Henry and may roll out a group of superdelegates who support him today.
But Team Clinton fueled with new money after significantly trailing Mr. Obama in cash raised so far this year insists "the tide is turning." Campaign aides said her 9.7 point Pennsylvania victory is "fresh evidence" she's the better candidate to beat Republican Sen. John McCain in the fall.
"Despite making an unprecedented financial investment in his Pennsylvania campaign, including millions on negative ads in the closing days of the race, Sen. Obama again failed to win a state that will be vital to a Democratic victory in November and spurred new questions about his ability to beat John McCain," the Clinton campaign outlined in a memo today. "No candidate has ever had more resources or enjoyed the kind of momentum that Sen. Obama had in Pennsylvania."

I’d imagine that the actual amount is about half of what has been claimed. Mrs. Clinton is already road kill.
I guess the “pain at the pump” isn’t so bad after all if people have 10 mil to throw at this dumbass “presidential” campaign being orchestrated by the pinheads in the liberal “media.”
“Let me eat my waffles” arrogant phony Obama has peaked. The sheeple are becoming dimly aware what a lying, manipulative little pr*ck he is.
I think Hillary could actually pull this off.
But, bet she's getting lots of ChiCommie cash just like they survived on in the 90's.
;-)
This is what scares me.
She just used the primary, that she knew she would win, to provide the smokescreen to launder the money into place.
Are you questioning the smartest and bravest woman in the world? You should poke both of your eyes out with a sharp stick.
GMTA!
Is there any real monitoring of all these record-breaking streams of “donations” that both Obama and Clinton keep announcing? Does anyone really know that Soros and other leftist douchebags are not simply setting up various proxy servers to flood their preferred candidate with online donations? How can we know that is NOT happening here?
So much for campain finance reform.
This is her Waterloo. All of the criminals are “bundling” right now trying to save their pardons. Much of it will be returned after it’s too late to matter.

Why in the name of God would you want her to.
She Is Postured As A Centrist! He isn’t. Centrists can win the very specific votes that win elections — Independent Moderates.
McCain’s image as an Independent Maverick gives him a claim to those votes vs Obama. He is less likely to win them against a now overtly sprinting to the middle Hillary.
Hillary has stopped trying to win left wing votes. She is now talking strictly as a centrist, going after the superdelegates who want to WIN. It is SHE who needs to be stopped and RIGHT NOW, in North Carolina and Indiana.
Operation Chaos has run its course. Its time has passed! The Risk/Reward ratio for it has now gone well beyond 1.0. It’s time to snuff her out. Everything that can be done to get Obama delegates in NC and Indiana needs to happen NOW, before it’s too late and any sense of temptation starts among superdelegates to believe her.
I hope you are correct. But I'm not counting on that just yet.
It should never have happened in the first place. Why after years of trying to get rid of the Clintons do some people try to resurrect them for any reason?
I sure wouldn't want to be in Denver during the DNC's summer convention.
Yeesh!
“This is what scares me.”
Are you suggesting that the Museum Osama would be better?
I would prefer Hilary to the RINO McCain or the Muslim Obama... At least she will govern by sticking her finger in the wind. McCain will just give us the finger.
