Are you listening?
Obama claims 3.1 million contributors and over 10 million supporters, most of whose email addresses are captured on his fundraising list.
"He can do a half-hour YouTube address every Saturday, addressing millions " said Joe Trippi recently, a Democrat consultant knowledgable about the Web.
Should we be surprised that Obama’s largest single sources of financial support from a single company for his presidential campaign was tied between Google and Microsoft? ($727,000 and $729,00 respectively, Los Angeles Times, 11/4/08, p. B6.)
Our work is cut-out for us.
