I don't disagree with that, however, just as you don't want to peak too soon, we don't want the Obamassiah to "trough" too soon either. He's spending a ton of his money and that's a GOOD THING. McCain will never be able to compete with the money BHO is raising. Second, there are a lot of moderates and independents (read: morons who vote based on the last yard sign they see before they head into the fire hall) who will NOT remember Wright, or this misstep come November. We need to keep our powder dry on BHO until after the Conventions. HRC is helping us do that.
(1)Agreed, especially since it seems McC isn't going to raise all that much powder.
(2)About the money. The Obamassiah (you, see I steal from everyone ... like Bill Clinton)has promised not to take public money. Of course, he will take the money. And that money, specifically that money he's legally allowed to keep, will make him a millionaire many times over. He (or some typical white guy on his staff) is an absolute wizard at raising money on the Internet. Staggering sums. Obamanators (People who for some sick reason want Obamanation) have been kicking in $50-100 on their debit cards... many of them over and over. Unbelievable tidal wave of money. Throw in the fat cats, and you have a pile to make even Michelle Obama happy, cracker!
Kerry creamed about $17!! Million. Ralph Nader has been doing it for years. Even Pat Buchanan creamed about $7 or 8 Mill. Perfectly legal. What's left over from private contributions, and then the matching funds ... after all campaign debts are paid, is the candidate's.
