Another interesting question for the writer of this blog would be to given the total tallies for all candidates.

Like the Flag pin Obama, goes good with the shades.

You guys are a little slow fox news said earlier that Hillary raised between 21 to 31 million in the month of April. Pay attention Cnn. If she released the amount she raised first.. And Congrats to Hillary for winning in Kentucky…..

31 million? SMELLS FISHY! There's a max donation per person. Bet this came from excelon, oprah, rezko and others then made up fictitious names for the books. Probably people from the grave donated money to his campaign, too. FISHY, FISHY.

Let's see if CNN, a pro obama media post this.

I guess to Hillary some of Black hard working Americans votes don't count for anything and because I cant see I go by what I hear I thought every vote should count, shame on you Hillary for using W.V. and KY having the only hard working Americans.

Hey Casey I am an Independent not Republican that happens to like Clinton because she is moderate and not a left wing nut.

LORD I AM GOING TO WAKE UP & FIND OUT NONE

OF THIS IS TRUE & HAVE A HEART ATTACK.

What a PITY though that ALL THAT MONEY isn't helping him close the deal. Maybe $31 BILLION will be enough to convince voters?

This info release by the Obama campaign is designed to take attention away from Clinto's HUGE victory in KY. Why release so late Obama?

Debby - You sound like a child. Stop with the nyah-nyah bickering and say something intelligent! This isn't a bumper sticker contest, so I wish people would stop trying to be witty with their one-liners and unfunny zingers and actually have something intelligent to say.

Why can't people figure out that we are looking at two candiates with essentilly identical politics here? It comes down to a decision about personality and likeability. Some like Clinton better, some like Obama better. In my humble opinion, Clinton is the better politician, Obama is the better leader.

Right now, this country needs a leader FAR more urgently than it needs a politician. That sums up my rationale. Of course I would vote for Hillary over McCain - it is pure silliness to say otherwise.

OBAMA '08

carrie:

Calm down, stop insulting people.

Shame on you CCN! NIce try in the attempt to diminish Hillary's HUGE VICTORY IN KY.

AND WE WILL GIVE HIM ALL HE NEEDS.

I COULD NOT BE PROUDER OF THIS COUNTRY

EXCEPT AFTER HIS ELECTION.

now is the terminator turn to knock her off in oregon.heeeeeeeeeeeee

I wish I could donate to Barack Obama's campaign.

Why is CNN only posting Obama supporters here?

How much is Oprah paying you?

Anyone who continues to send Obama money is a fool.

He's a loser. Karl Rove is going to take him to the cleaners and do the job the nothing outlets like CNN haven't.

What a cheap for sale country this is.

$30 million was from Oprah's bank account…

I know what you mean, Mark… I will continue to donate, even though I cannot afford it — I can't afford another Bush or Clinton, either.

Go Obama, I think you and your family will finally finally finally make change in this country and we can begin the discussions of issues here in our country and in the world.

BTW, I am moving from California to Missouri, so I expect to help carry that state in the general election! I know LOTS of folks there who voted Obama, that's why Missouri went to Obama… a red state, folks.

Clinton and McCain supporters, put your money where your mouth is.

For God's sake, Axelrod, just let her have her moment.

Yak - get your facts straight, it was not Obama who blocked Florida and Michigan, is was their own local Democrat party… it was in fact the state who blocked the state by not following the rules..

Also go ahead anc ount florida and Michigan, the facts stay the same… Obama is our nominee…

Popular vote (yes we count caucuses too)….delegate votes, super delegate votes…etc

He has them ALL.

Wow, he is one good CEO!

To "Wondering in VA"

The "Big States" you speak of either go Democrat every time, thus will be in his win column in the fall (Cali and NY) or weren't handled on fair terms (FLA and MI).

To act like Californians and New Yorkers won't vote Democrat if Obama wins the nomination is just silly talk.

If Hilary would stop begging people for money she probably would not be in debt. Everytime she says please go to my website. It makes me uneasy and I support hilary first and democratic second… Let the people do what they please but dont beg.

BOY ITS GOING TO BE A TREAT TO HAVE A PRESIDENT

THAT SPEAKS ENGLISH, WITHOUT MISPRONOUNCING

OR SLURRING HALF HIS WORDS. THIS IS TOO GOOD

TO BE TRUE. WE WOULD ASK TO BE PINCHED

BUT THERE ARE TOO MANY OF US.

Let's see Clinton is running a campaign that is in debt and Obama is running a campaign that is in surplus. Who should we trust to run the country????

Why vote for someone that can't run a campaign without running into major debt and using over 10 million of their own money?

Think about it people!

A 25% Loss. Maybe people really are having 2nd thoughts.

@Wondering in VA

This is not the national election, this is the primaries.. And how come Hillary can't sew this thing up? Hmmmmmmmm?!

give your head a shake

Hillary big wins don't produce big donations! 25 millions in debt. WOW!!!

You know what they say…..THERE ARE THINGS MONEY CAN'T BUY…..PERHAPS THE PRESIDENCY IS ONE OF THEM.

Hilliary can get the big states with large numbers and that is to be expected but these little states seem to have the movement in Obamas favor…Florida and Michigan will not move in her favor. It's a done deal.

Popular Vote Total 16,269,147 49.0% 15,854,212 47.7% Obama +414,935 +1.3%

Estimate w/IA, NV, ME, WA* 16,603,231 49.0% 16,078,074 47.5% Obama +525,157 +1.5%

Do they have another big endorsement to distract from a humiliating defeat in KY, I wonder?

MUCH MORE MONEY COMING FROM SOMEWHERE? MAKES ME WONDER?

A democrat president needs money to beome president!

If you can't manage a few millions then you can't manage the US economy.

Fiscal responsibility and great management skills = Obama 08!

Obama/? '08! See that 50? I threw that one, over there, see?! Do us proud Obama, you're the cure for the common Republican (aka, Hillary).

Hard core Hillary supporters may as well get use to the idea of Senator Barack Obama being our next President, because it will definitely happen. John McCain is cruising for a bruising in November, and will certainly get his whole world rocked big time in the elections.

I certainly would not want to be in McCain's shoes come November because he's going to lose by a landslide margin. Hopefully he has a master plan for a quick exit strategy out of the country by then. Perhaps he can find refuge in Iraq!

Lets see what Hillary does…lol

Still not going to vote for him. Niether will HALF of the Hillary supporters IF he is the nominee. IF IF IF….

Hillary or McCain are the only choices. Sorry Obots!!!

Debby - you seem, by your comments, that you are 7 years old?

Money can buy anything?

A Presidency?

Isn't this this sick, inside the beltway politics this guy says he's not?

Yes.

And that's because - he's a complete liar and hoodwinker.

I can't wait to see the rest - to see this man exposed.

i love you barrack obama
when u see barrack and his family,u see the love between them
but with the clintons all u see is bitterness and resentment#
obama is the american dream

What I don't understand is why is everybody so excited about Obama winning the nomination….he hasn't won one major state during the primaries. If he couldn't win one during the primaries what makes us Democrates think he can win them during the actual election????

Go OBAMA do worry about exit poll in kentucky and WV. You are the nominee. That is just CNN bias. They working for the clintons

way to go Obama supporters, let's support him all the way to the white house…

Obama 08

Just donated another $50, and will continue to donate to Barack Obama's Campaign until he is elected President later on this year…

Clinton voters who vote for McCain are just plain ignorant.
They don't care about the issues, they only vote out of pride.
Thats not what voting is all about, they are a disgrace to the Democratic Party. Obama and Clinton AGREE ON MOST OF THE ISSUES, REMEMBER!? McCain is practically the opposite…..

Grow Up! Lets move this country forward, with a Democrat in the White House!

OBAMA/McCain 2008 - Say no to dynasties, when did the US become a monarchy - The house of Bush and the house of Clinton. I am a brown hardworking man trying to put food on my families table - I guess I don't matter to Hillary.

Not important!

The move is on:
Clinton supporters will not vote Obama!

debbi you are pathetic.

Anyone who says they'll vote McBush rather than support the guy who will win the Dem primary is really a Republican anyway.

I am appalled at how the first really possible woman candidate has behaved in this primary. She's proven she's useless with math and is a sore loser and a liar to boot.

She didn't have to lie about Bosnia repeatedly to prove experience. Why did she do that? Because lies roll out of Clinton mouths like bad breath.

Go ahead, Bill, wag that finger again.

This is great news. Got me excited to go and contribute for the second time so far to keep this thing going. when I get it, I am putting my stimilus check to this campaign, I know I will get a better return for the money then putting it toward credit cards where they laugh and raise the rates so I never get ahead on bills.

Why count fl they broke the rules, they were warned by dnc not to or else.
Maybe they will not screw up the next election that is 2 for 2

BLACK liberation theology - CNN why have you not covered this as a story? This is what Obama has been involved/listeing to for the last 20 years!!
SUPERDELEGATES GET REAL!! DO YOUR HOMEWORK!!
NO ITS NOT O.K.

MC CAIN IN '08- GOD BLESS AMERICA

Hi Rave, cause they don't have self respect.
She is crafting everything for politics.
A very simple real fact is that when she could not successfully lead a campaign which was started very strong base, how can we believe that she can lead country successfully.
Dos this make sense ?

barrack obama is the best thing that has happened to america since martin luther king and jfk

This won't matter in November.

Debby the question was about money raised and I asked how much she raised. Touchy touchy

Woah! thats huge money! he can host a gala for iranian president in chicago church. NOBAMA!

i just hope when it comes time for the democrats to support the other canidate they will do so because truly we can not have a 3rd term of bush where the iraq war will continue untill 2013.

We will continue to send our donation because Barack Obama is the one. We still can't believe Hillary Clinton played the race card in the south east to divide the party. This move has destroyed the respect of many.

BLACK liberation theology - CNN why have you not covered this as a story? This is what Obama has been involved/listeing to for the last 20 years!!

Nuff said

Hillary keeps thanking the kid who sold his bike and video games (Dalton). I hopoe she intends to buy him a ew bike — she knows this campaign is all but over — it's not right for a millionaire to take the money from a kid's bike. It is especially not right to keep bragging about taking it.

Money Talks….time for Hillary to walk!!!

Way to go Obama at least you are not operating in the RED, and toting you can bring economic change.

Go Obama / Edwards 08

I just heard, John Edwards is going back to endorse Hillary Clinton as Obama lost Kentucky.

This is inspirational. I will donate $20 today. Barack I hope you represent all our dreams and wishes.

Maybe he can pay off Hillary's debt so she can get on with helping Obama become the next POTUS.

Hey Dave I am just telling the truth get over it. hahaha

now thats presidential. I dont hear billary talk about how raising more money should be part of electability.

If you are not the peoples favorite how is she going to pay for the election? I guess continuing to owe money like Bush.

Oh lets not forget her endorsment by Karl Rove. yea she will be in court with him in Novemeber after the election

Clinton's group also tried to by off a super delegate for $1 Million dollars! What does that say to America….TRYING TO BUY A WIN AND MOVING THE GOAL POSTS. SHE COULD SERIOUSLY CARE LESS ABOUT THESE PEOPLE IN KENTUCKY. SORRY, TO SAY THAT, BUT IT'S TRUE, VERY TRUE. She is seriously power hungry and in Hillaryland.

It's too bad that these folks in Kentuckey haven't realized what Obama is doing for the veterans and those coming back from a war that should never happened…Hillary will spend her days trying to get back her "loan" to her campaign, which she is CHARGING INTEREST ON.

is that the kind of president we need…..

GO OBAMA…..GO OREGON - BRING IT HOME FOR OBAMA PLEASE.

I am a huge Obama supporter, but I hope this money doesn't go straight to Clinton and her mismanaged and broken campaign.

Glad to hear this! I know I contributed at least twice that month, however small the contributions.

I am listening to HRC's KY speech and hearing her say that "as KY goes, so goes the nation…"

Isn't that what she said about WV? Which is it? It's kind of like her home state and the metrics by which you win the primary… it keeps shifting.

This is why I wouldn't vote for her. Too shifty.

btw, I am 54, female and white, Hillary. You talk about sexism… I would NEVER vote for a woman JUST BECAUSE she's a woman. That's sexist, just as you accuse others of being. I'm not voting Obama because he's black, either.

I'm voting for the change - real change - to make a difference in how America functions in the world and how the world views America.

Go Obama! YES WE CAN!

wow
and some people claim they will vote maccain if obama in the nominee
obama is already the nominee
but why dont u donaye to ur loser hellary
oh ,i forgot
you are all gun tottong,racist,uneducated,factory workers
make sure ur kids have an education,so they will have a better life than u did

Senator Obama will choose who he feels is the best person for the job of VP, and it certainly will not be Hillary by any stretch of the imagination. Hillary is done!! She's finished! The best that she can hope for is a continuation of her political career in New York, and that's about it.

She will NOT have a role in the new Obama Presidential administration. So what part of NO doesn't the media undrstand here?

50 states, not 48 states. 2,210 needed to win, not 2,025. This has been a steal from Obama camp. They blocked Michigan and Florida. Don't expect him to win those states in November. Don't expect him to win at all. He already lost my vote.

wow that should make it easier for him to try to buy the election in november also. too bad sensible people aren't going to vote for him no matter how much money he throws around.

am one of the donors,dont even think i will put one cent to hillary's campaign

Good Deal.

If Obama can run a campaign so brilliantly……imagine what he can do for America……. It's going to be so exciting having him in the White
House. What bright future lies ahead.

This guys supporters, including me, are money generators!

OBAMA'08

A person that knows how to manage money! A President that knows how to manage the countries money. Makes sense to me!

I gave for my third time in April! WOOHOO! GOBAMA!

Yeah - you go Obama!!

Ky is a state of racist. Forget the color of his skin.
Obama 2008

Looks like the Terminator.

Too Cool.

You people with your childish names of Billary, McSame, etc. are so juvenile. Grow up and take a long hard look at the issues, and quit with the stupid name calling.
Maybe you would like it if people called your candidate "B.O." ?????

HE COULD NOT EVEN WIN KY WITH THAT KIND OF MONEY , HUMMMMMMMM !

OF COURSE, MORE PEOPLE ARE LEARNING ABOUT THE REAL BARACK OBAMA !

LARRY SINCLAIR BLOG

GO HILLARY

COUNT OUR FLORIDA VOTES PRONTO !

I am one of those 1.5 million donors!! And I have a shirt to prove it!!

Obama 08

Hey Linned: Clinton is still in the race thats what she did. hahaha

No big news it is an every month occurence. No lobbyist money.

@ Debby - Is that how bitter you Hillary supporters have become? Poor little girl.

One and a half MILLION individuals - that's pretty darned impressive!

—————-

DEMOCRATS BEWARE!!!

A lot of Repubs posing as Democrats are posting hate mail. They're trying to drive a wedge between us!

RESIST THE REPUB HATE MACHINE!

Debby, he will be probably by mid afternoon tommorrow or Thursday…watch, listen and learn… the train is coming… and McCain is in our sights!!…

Let's distract America from Hillary's HUGE win in Kentucky by saying how much we raised. Oh please. What a low attempt.

A money machine of that magnitude is an unprecedented weapon in American politics. The millions of newly registered voters are another. This election is going to be a slaughter. Watch the GOP rats jump ship in ever increasing waves and rejoice!

Nice work Obama. the DNC is going to have some serious problems raising money for a HRC bid if she some how steals this election due to a RED state (KY) that will vote RED no matter what. Who does the general public want in office? count the cash…

In the mean time, Clinton is loaning her campaign millions of dollars……..

Excellent! He will use this money in the GE to slam-dunk McSame. I am just not sure what he will do with the 30 million he will have left.

Dayyuuuuuuummmmmm!!!!!

In your 2nd paragraph…"it's" means "it is."

That's great!! What did Senator Clinton do?

Another great month! Hillary can use all the scare tactics. Obama will win in November!

Alright, there's power in the figures. We want change
Yes We Can

This is another reason I don't want to see Clinton as VP. She is in $20 mln. debt. Why should we pay for HER DEBT? No way.

Way to go obama!!! We support you and we love you!! Looks you dont have to use you own money!!

I hope he takes this kind of fiscal responsibility with him to the White House. It's good to see a well managed campaign. Both Clinton & McCain could learn from this model when all's said and done. This shows good judgement & management on the part of the Obama team. Well done.

That's good to hear that he' still doing well in the fund raising department.
Maybe Hillary is at $ 31 Million debt in April.
She is desperate and she lies about running into battles, cheats her running mates and contests in MI, FL.
Why do KY and WV voters want a Lier / Cheater / Desperado ?? Are these really democrats (or) the Rush Limbaugh people posing to be democrats.
OBAMA / AL GORE 2008

BIG DEAL he still isn't the nominee. hahaha

I hope he can give that to Hillary when she gets the nomination!

And April was a slow primary month! Way to go Obama!

THIS….

is a REAL movement !
