Obama Raised More In A Single Day Than McCain Did In A Month

After John McCain released his June fund-raising numbers, I heard the media talk about how he is getting on his game and that Obama better watch out, basically the crap that they spew to make the race seems as if it were close. Well that came to a screeching halt when Obama released his June numbers and people saw he raised $52 million, more than double McCain's $22 million haul. But there's an even more impressive story within that number.

From Politico:

After locking up his party’s presidential nomination, Barack Obama’s fundraising operation came roaring back to life in June, generating more than a million dollars on five days, including a whopping $25 million that came in on the last day of the month.

His one-day haul represents nearly half of his monthly total and more than Republican rival John McCain generated for the entire month. During the month, McCain did not have a single day in which he raised a million dollars.

Now of course McCain counts on the RNC to raise him the big money that skirts the campaign finance rules (the ones that McCain supposedly loves so much). When you combine the candidates with their party committees, McCain still has a little more cash on hand than Obama. That is why we must continue to raise money and volunteer for the campaign to get his message out so that we can start to change America for the better. Eight years of George Bush was eight years too much, we certainly do not want another four.
