With only 2 weeks left before the election, is it time to begin to imagine what will happen if Obama wins?
Worse than that... what if they win the BIG prize? What if they win the vaunted "super majority" in Congress? With the Senate split even and the House in control of the DNC by 54%... it certainly isn't beyond the realm of possibility.
I bring this up because of what I heard recently about Obama's fund-raising accomplishments. Not only did he RAISE more money that Bush and Kerry SPENT during the entire '04 campaign, but the average donation is only $86.00! Seems like Obama listened to big Howie Dean, where John Kerry didn't, because Barry sure did learn to raise some grass-roots support, huh?
If there is THAT much support behind Obama, that literally MILLIONS of people will donate to his campaign, then how secure is the prospect that the 6 House seats in close races will REMAIN in the hands of the GOP? How safe should the GOP feel knowing 6 Republican Senate seats are being VACATED by retiring Senators? Both VA and NE seats are in tight races... in fact, both are DNC picks, right now, and neither are States the GOP can afford to lose.
Food for thought, huh?

Silly boy, isn't it possible that those donations are just pieced down to meet the "less than $200" reporting requirement?
Love you! Congrats on week #1 no smoking.
