Bring It On


As much money, from a wider base and expectations managed like a veteran. Her Inevitable-ness is severely weakened. I can feel the country getting stronger...


From MSNBC.


DAVENPORT, Iowa - Democrat Barack Obama raked in $25 million for his presidential bid in the first three months of 2007, placing him on a par with front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton and dashing her image as the party’s inevitable nominee.


The donations came from an eye-popping 100,000 donors, the campaign said in a statement.


The figure was the latest evidence that Obama, a political newcomer who has served just two years in the Senate, has emerged as the most powerful new force in presidential politics this year. It also reinforced his status as a significant threat to Clinton, who’d hoped her own $26 million first quarter fundraising total would begin to squeeze her rivals out of contention.
