In the money
The fundraising totals are now in, and it looks like more or less a tie among the top two Democractic presidential candidates. Hillary announced earlier this week that she had $26 million in the coffers. Now Obama's campaign today says he has $25 million. More notably, Obama's number of contributors doubles Clintons--100,000 to 50,000. One piece I read yesterday (which I can't find now) suggested that's a better predictor of long term fund-raising success.
Obama's certainly got some momentum, even though he's consistently lagging behind in the polls. I still have a bad feeling about the lack of specifics his campaign has given about policy plans. It's nice rhetoric, but he'll need to take a stand for something at some point. There's things I like about Edwards, though he can be a bit of a demagogue at times. I'm sure there will be plenty of news to follow on what looks to be a very long campaign.
