Money: How much of an advantage for Obama?
This something that I'm trying to get a handle on. McCain will get $82-84 million next week, at last report Obama had roughly 70 million on hand. What should his fundraising targets be for August, Sept. and Oct.? I think this is a critical aspect of the campaign that few people outside DU are really talking about.

Including the money that's on hand, I'd feel pretty good if Obama raised and spent $200 million (including cash on hand) over the next two months. Is that doable?

2. I donated last night
And it felt really good. I live in Oklahoma, so my vote is more or less symbolic.

3. It certainly gave us a great convention can't wee the GOP one being anything near as good.

I think their convention will look lifeless in comparison.
