Hillary Done?

Check out a great post by my friend Justin Hamilton, explaining why Hillary Clinton is pretty much done. I was thinking about writing something similar, but I figure there’s no need to re-invent the wheel. I differ on a couple of the specifics, but he’s pretty much got it. Obama’s lead is large enough that only a huge blowout in Texas or Ohio (and a win or very narrow loss in the other) could put her campaign back in the running.

Obama’s One Million Donors

No time for a full post right now, but Barack Obama just broke a million donors.

Obama Campaign On Track to Reach 1 Million Donors by Thursday

I just went to the Obama website and saw their donor counter. They’re very close to 1 million donors. I went back an hour later and it had increased by about 1000 people. It seems to have slowed down a bit now. I checked it 5 minutes later and it had 45 new donors. Even at that lower rate of 600 people an hour, that’s 9 new donors a minute or one new donor every 6 2/3 seconds, absolutely unbelievable.

Anyway, at this rate they should reach their goal by mid-afternoon today. I suppose it could take a bit longer, but I’m sure they’ll be there by tomorrow. Their take for this month is going to be insane. Some are predicting as much as $60-70 million for the month.
