This sound’s like Obama is going all out to buy the election…don’t really see the change he is preaching here…If he has more voters…he will win….isn’t this $$$ thing just like allways? I know about some of the cost of running for office…so don’t slam me…I also know that when someone gives you money…they have an expectation of some kind of return…this is what’s so wrong with lobbyist….and the last few decades of politic’s as usual…the money get’s respect while the voters get neglect. Noticed how the government awards every contract to the lowest bidder…why is this different? since all news sources are 24/7 coverage of candidates…Why do they need to spend 100 million or more for the primaries alone? I am seriously astounded that Americans still think throwing money will change anything for the better…And I am re-looking at Mr Paul as real change.

Because McCain only raised $100M throughout the primaries and up til now. Obama raised about $270M just in the primaries. He stands to raise that and more in the general. Even with the $85M from public financing, McCain still may not raise as much as Obama.

He has the rich and famous on his side. One is Oprah Winfrey and etc. He’s trying to prove he can do it without our money but the rich do control this country and he’s part of that culture. “Obama will do anything for a vote”!!

Because Obama is being financed by wealthy (and by wealthy, I mean billionaire type wealthy) foreign families.

If you take the public money, it opens you up to scrutiny about how you are spending your money, which would open Obama’s campaign to all kinds of questions about where the rest of his money is *really* coming from.

He has already spent far more than the money he has purportedly collected form his “millions of $5 donations.” Approximately 85% of all of his new voter registratiosn have been prved to be fake.

Eventually, it will all become known. I just hope it happens before all of the Obama unquestioning zombies get him elected.

Folks! Do your own due diligience! Get the facts from unbiased sources! Attempt to prove to yourself what you beleive! Open your mind and go look for yourself!
