Tsunami Tuesday WINDFALL!
The Billary Clinton camp will claim it doesn't matter. Bill might even go so far as to say that such hot fund-raising is contributing to global warming.
And oh yes, team Obama added 170,000 names to their lists in the process. That's roughly $189 per donor. Which means under the legal limits Obama could potentially raise $307,000,000.
I was the very first pundit to predict that Barack Obama would be president in 2009. Rush Limbaugh validated my prediction the next day on his radio show.
My prediction was based simply on two enormous qualifiers. That Obama rally the various progressive far left, and the more traditional black church liberals. The other key part of the prediction was dependent upon the GOP picking a less than enthusiastic nominee. At the time I was thinking the nominee might be Giuliani - but now Giuliani-lite is the front-runner and it seems the Obama plan is still on track...
BTW, I think Barack is already thinking big picture since he had his first prime-time television ad hit last night in the first commercial break of a small time television experiment called, American Idol. But hey - no one watches that right?
