Re: $150 million raised by Obama in September...
HOLY SHIT. The previous fundraising record was $66 million by Obama in August. 632,000 new donors in September. 3.1 million unique donors during the campaign. Average contribution throughout the campaign is $86. Through August, he had $77 million in cash on hand compared to McCain's $36 million. McCain of course cannot raise money due to being funded by the government (though he is getting help from the RNC, which can fundraise as much as they want). Even with the RNC helping him, he's screwed.
Re: $150 million raised by Obama in September...
should'nt they better use that money for ppl in need ? There are, i dont know how many ppl homeless or not able to buy food for there family's
I hope he donates a large portion of what's leftover to something like this... I can't imagine he'll spend all this.

Re: $150 million raised by Obama in September...
I thought Obama already had like $230mil walking into the campaign.
No, he didn't. He raised around $300 million over the course of the Democratic primary, but he spent quite a bit of it.

Re: $150 million raised by Obama in September...
Seriously? He spent the majority of that fighting Hilary?
I doubt that. McCain is still keeping up with Obama, and doesn't have a FRACTION of Obama's money.
Oh contraire. McCain has the RNC fundraising constantly for him. Through August, the RNC had $70+ million cash on hand. McCain had $36 million. Obama had $77 million. The DNC had like $20 million. So actually the Republicans have more money than Obama. It's just that, unfortunately for McCain, the RNC is having to fight tooth and nail for Congressional seats as well as helping his campaign.
