We haven’t heard the boast that “Obama will have 1 $ billion to run on,” for quite a while, but those who are hoping Barack Obama will be reelected have to be shocked at the relative condition of his fund raising so far.
Knowing how to count and read tells anyone Obama could not get to 1 $ billion at the rate he is progressing since last summer. Nevertheless, this fact is scarcely touched upon in the mainstream media as if not speaking about it means his fund raising problems don’t exist.
Last week Obama raised eyebrows instead of money when it was announced he was asking people who are getting married or celebrating other events where monetary gifts are customary to redirect the money to his campaign.
Given this fact, how long will it be before legions of Obama’s sycophants stand on street corners shaking tin cans with “Forward” on them?
By any measure Obama won’t even get to the $ 750 million he had to crush John McCain after tricking (a common Muslim fighting tactic) the hapless Senator from Arizona by reversing his promise to take only public funding – surprise surprise he lied!
So far Obama has attended over 140 fund raisers breaking all records for these events by a sitting President. He has abandoned any pretense that he is interested in governing.
He spends his time going from one event to the other only stopping to play golf at a record rate as well. Nevertheless, he is NOT getting the money from these events one would imagine he would pull in.
His campaign is begging small donors for as little as $3.00 and his big donors are backing away. George Soros does not have the money Adelson and Koch brothers have…..

It’s all good news.
This seems very odd. I can understand that Obama isn’t very popular with real people. But he has thrown trillions of tax dollars out the door to his corrupt buddies. Surely he should be getting his 5% back on that money. I can’t imagine that clinton wouldn’t.
Maybe the problem is that almost all the crony capitalists that he gave tax money to seem to have gone bankrupt, or to have taken the money and run.
You are a fool .... deal with it.
Hear...hear...!!
This is silly. Soros is worth $20b. He could write a check for $1b to some super-PAC and still have more money left at the end of the year than at the beginning. Besides, none of these people is donating to political campaigns at anywhere near that level.
This is a smokescreen. Obama will have plenty of porkulus money to use, in addition to the billions in free SRM coverage and our Tax Dollars at Work.
That’s what I was thinking. Even the green jobs handouts that went belly up did so with the insiders walking off with plenty of remaining cash. The businesses were just shells.
Great minds think alike, Marcus Tullius!
ROMA INVICTA!
As though it weren’t enough that Obama is stealing our children’s future, but now he wants their gifts, too. Geez
