Just Saying: "...and I approve this message."

The Illinois junior senator simply mauled his previous monthly election fundraising record by almost three-fold. In February 2008, with the Democratic nomination shifting to his favor, Obama decided to know no longer use public funds for his campaign. By August he had set the fundraising record as $62 million, only to be eclipsed the following month by $150 in fundraising efforts putting him at $600 million raised. McCain, who has only raised $84 million, perched from a conservative vantage point at FOX News and questioned the accuracy of this astronomical figure. And being down nine points in the Gallup Poll, who could blame him?
A graphic attached to a recent article by The Post tries to put in perspective what a $700 billion bail-out really means. The figures range from 11,667 Baker University Centers and 208 Oprah Winfreys.
$600 million dollars in campaign financing. At first blush it seems like people are throwing their money at something maybe not entirely necessary. Whether or not that's the case is debatablt. Americans have NEVER thrown their money away on things. But what happens when Obama wins by a landslide? I doubt any of that leftover of $600 million (which there probably won't be) will be donated to help the Obama administration we're planning for alleviate economic concerns.
We should possibly look into helping and relying on our banks. I'm not saying donating to a candidate is undemocratic; that's ludicrous. But democracy is relative. I'd say the bad karma from people who have already run to the banks and their good karma of getting involved and donating to a campaign even out.
So I end with three quotes from FDR, a rather appropriate voice in our time, I think.
Confidence... thrives on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligations, on faithful protection and on unselfish performance. Without them it cannot live.The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today. Let us move forward with strong and active faith.If we can boondoggle ourselves out of this depressions, that word is going to be enshrined in the hearts of the American people for years to come.
