Been reading those Clinton press releases when you can't sleep?

correction, Obama has doubled that, as he is now over $6 million since Feb 5th.

Nice try and spin it as a win for Hillary though...

I'm determined to do everything I can to help Hillary.  And some of the nastier Obama fans can thanks themselves for that.  Some of the gleeful comments have been so over the top I've already donated 3 times in the last 24 hours, and I'll be going again in a few days when that refund check hits the account.

Go Hilary!

Obama has raised over $6 million in one day.

Hillary isn't keeping the pace. She's at half the pace, at best.

That's what happens when you've tapped out your non-grassroots, machine-driven campaign.

In the last 24 hour period, Clinton is keeping pace with Moveon & Obama combined.

Where is the evidence for that?

Well i just donated to Clinton...I think the main point was people are trying to say "she can't raise any more money" when clearly, she can.

It was a good take for Hillary. In a normal day, it would be top headlines. Unfortunately for her campaign, Obama just did even better. Now he'll be getting the top headlines tomorrow.

I thought cash was over-rated at the Presidential level?

Has anyone confirmed that was a Clinton email? Sorry but the fact it was started by Taylor Marsh, who even labeled it "unverified" and then was posted on a DailyKos blog just seems odd.

$2.9M of it was probably another loan from the Bill&Hill checking acct.

These kinds of posts really hurt HRC's campaign.  She can not - CAN NOT - get into a fund raising war with the Obama camp.  He has over 96% non-maxed, and he will just destroy her.  Posts like these fire up the troops, and that doesn't even take into account that the post is factually inaccurate, seeing that Obama has raised $6.38 million in the last 26 hours.  This stuff really hurts Hillary - factually wrong and red meat for the Obama supporters to dump more money into his war chest.

Looks like that Move On endorsement helped after all.

But I have to wonder if Hillary can keep this up. Other candidates have had big fundraising efforts online: Ron Paul, Fred Thompson for example. But then they stop. Obama keeps taking in money every day, even if not at the clip of $6 million a day.

It's so funny to watch people try and spin $3 million in one day as irrelevant.  You know, Obama could raise $20 million and it would still be a pretty significant fact.

Did Obama break the all-time record for online fundraising today? I was looking around for numbers, and stumbled across this (with a Jerome quote, oddly enough):

Today, Nov. 5, marks not only Paul's best fundraising haul in a single day -- approximately $3.75 million by 11 p.m. EST -- but online observers say it's also the most money raised by a candidate on the Web in a single day. And the day's not over yet. "Damn. Wow. Um, that's pretty awesome," said a stunned Jerome Armstrong who served as Howard Dean's online strategist. Armstrong, the founder of the popular blog MyDD, said Dean raised as much as $700,000 in one day toward the end of the primary race. "But not a million," Armstrong added. "What Paul is doing -- or what his supporters are doing -- is really impressive."

I believe Paul raised $4.2 million when all was said and done, which Obama passed hours ago. Or is there a bigger record out there somewhere?

Ugh, all this talk about money is making my stomach turn. To think that people might make their voting decision based on a tv commercial.

I guess it's been going on since the beginning of time, but this is just ridiculous.

Jerome,

Presumably Hillary's campaign has to pay back the $5,000,000 that she loaned to it.  So, even if she is doing well in fundraising today, a good chunk of the $$ is going back into her pocket, and will not be used to advance her campaign. $5 million out, $5 million back in.  Or am I missing something?

Also, who knows how much it really is. Could it be 4, 5, 6 or more?

Is it Obama's new kind of Washington Politics?  What a change Mr. Obama?  

Yes we can! NO YOU CAN'T.

It's not $6 million in a month for Obama. It's $6 million in one day. $3 mil is impressive in one day for Hillary. But Obama has doubled that.

"In the last 24 hour period, Clinton is keeping pace with Moveon & Obama combined."

This is not accurate. Obama doubled Clinton. That is not "keeping pace" by  any stretch of the imagination.

No use...no matter what Clinton does, the Obama people will claim it's "no big deal". Basically, she needs some money so if it means obama is going to double whatever she makes, go ahead, at least shes getting something from it.

Hillary's grassroot is made up of poor people or middle class Americans. Just because the true hard working Americans can not afford to donate money like the lazy wine drinking hope filled rich liberals and independents, doesnt mean she doesnt have grassroot appeal.

Who voted for Hillary? Go look at them (after you have finished your wine and spewed hatred for fellow Americans) and then understand why Hillary is still standing inspite of your rich elite media driven hatred filled campaign.

Obama campaign = Hope for rich and media elite
Clinton campaign = Hope for poor and hard working Americans

Whatever happened to:

"We are very frustrated because we have a Supreme Court that seems determined to say that the wealthier have more right to free speech than the rest of us. For example, they say you couldn't stop me from spending all the money I've saved over the last five years on Hillary's campaign if I wanted to, even though it would clearly violate the spirit of campaign finance reform," - Bill Clinton, December 24, 2007.

See, now the Obama people is making this about money. Go figure.

It was said before Tuesday that Obama was on track to raise as much or more money in February than they did in January,  which means they were on at least a 1 million a day clip. If you add to that the 6+ they've pulled in today, they've raised at least 11 million in 6 days.  And that's not counting the money the raised on January 31st which was their biggest day in January and not included in January's total.

The email was correct at the time. But Obama has been raising money at an incredible speed tonight. It's been about a million every couple hours.

does that count the 5 million she just loaned herself in that one day tally?

Did you know that Obama raised more the 4 million from ACTUAL VOTERS since the polls closed last night. Delude yourselves if you will.

The Clinton campaign may not be able to match the big-dollar wine and latte donors for Obama, but the fact that a lot of blue-collar, lower middle class working people are donating to her what they can afford is the BIG story here.  

I would think some of you might think twice before mocking the efforts of those who have little to give to Clinton, but are giving it anyway, by comparing them to those contributing to the already bloated coffers of Obama.  With homeless vets sleeping under bridges and children going without health care, there's something disgusting about the glee being expressed over this money raising contest.

Jerome, your update makes no sense.  Presumably the Obama campaign has received $3 million and change since the 6:25 PM email, and this was reflected in the graphic on the website.  This isn't rocket science - you must be acting deliberately obtuse.

you are a clinton tool
