    From the article:

    "UPDATE: Bloomberg reported that Palin’s speech was even better for Democrats--Barack Obama has raised $8 million since Wednesday’s speech. 'Sarah Palin’s attacks have rallied our supporters in ways we never expected,' Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton said. 'And we fully expect John McCain’s attacks tonight to help us make our grassroots organization even stronger.' "

    And it's actually above $10 million now.

        It says he has big money in his pocket.

        Not good for a man who claims to be getting so many small contributions.

          "Obama spokesman Bill Burton said Palin's address, heavily laced with digs at Obama, prompted an outpouring of donations from more than 130,000 donors."

            The push from the Obama campaign during the RNC convention was for first time $5 donors.

                doesn't matter as soon as palin was selected the money started to pour in..........they were waiting for his pick...you know all those people obama slandered........all those bitter, clinging, praying, bible reading, church going, gun toting,hunting, boiler maker drinking, fly fishing,catholic,pledge of allegiance reciting, proud of America knuckle dragging neanderthals that he likes to belittle and now is kissing Hillary's ample rear end for her help in appealing to them. Dont think most of America was impressed or swayed by the Denver Barakopolis. He has to go crying to MOMMY now for her help.................

            Obama's campaign is scared and the left wing if foaming at the mouth!

            It's entertaining to watch!

              You keep telling us we are very scared.
              Is there some deep, dark need in the Republican soul to be frightening?
              Is that what the idiot war, the imploded economy, the love of guns and small gods was all about?

              You were just trying to be scary ?

              Help! Help! The Republicans finaly have someone to get enthusiastic about!

              Sorry.
              It just isn't working.
              Maybe if Palin wore her hockey mask for speeches, or something?

                  Not sure what your point is here. We know cons will vote for a tree stump if they think it will keep their tax cuts rolling in so of course we want to make sure that we do everything humanly possible to destroy McSausage and Miss Half-Baked Alaska. That's not fear, that's practicality.

                    Pc25: 'which is why PANICKY OBAMA supporters felt compelled to go to the hip again..........they are worried about Sarah Palin'

                    I have never felt complelled to go the hip.
                    I have been to the hop ; ( and danced darn well too ).
                    I have shot from the hip as occasion demanded.
                    I sometimes rely on hype.
                    and I think hope is audacious;
                    but I never go to the hip .

                    Oh, and we are worried about Sarah Palin.
                    When she hunts from airplanes, how does she lean out the door to fire those heavy rifles without falling out?

                        You do know there are a lot of Democratic hips out there. That is the definition of a grassroots campaign. Which is something McSame and his 160 lobbyists can't even comprehend.

                      Too bad it doesn't have anything but baseless conjecture in it. Even the WSJ article it is conjecturing on is conjecture.
                      What a larf!!

                        Do you realize that these guys are going to raise about 1/2 Billion dollars to spend on this campaign. This is crazy.

                          Hmmm, the article is claiming a victory because Obama isn't 20 to 30 percentage points ahead of McCain. Interesting.

                          Palin is a member of the NRA. Watch the McCain campaign use this as a way to gain more money.

                                    Chances are excellent the wolves were shot to prevent the overpredation of prey species.

                                    Guess you never lived in the wilderness where there are animals.

                                    I'm surprised that you aren't complaining that she didn't shoot enough wolves, you know protecting Bambi and all.

                                      I expected that answer.
                                      Palin only shoots the wolves from airplanes, out of love for the furry little darlings; sometimes love is tough.

                                      Bambi isn't real, GW; that's a cartoon, a fake.
                                      And the person who hunts from an airplane using a high powered rifle;
                                      isn't a hunter, and isn't an outdoorsman, and isn't even in the wilderness.

                                      They have turned themselves into a cartoon, a fake.

                                      Aerial hunting program kills 124 wolves

                                      CONTROL: Wildlife officials estimate that more than 1,400 moose saved.

                                      i am not a proponent of this practice but here are the reasons given by state wildlife and conservation officials. Judge for yourselves, the practice has been going on years before sarah palin was elected governor

                                        "Right you are, TonyB;
                                        anytime a fact that unbelievable is posted, links should be provided."
                                        Which you failed to do. Which makes your post that Palin participates in aerial hunts worthless.
                                        Please do not spout nonsense when you have no clue what you are talking about.

                                        Sarah Palin Champions Barbaric Aerial Hunting of Wolves

                                        Just another way Governor Palin shows she is pro-life!

                                        This past weekend I wrote about Gov. Sarah Palin, and her views that polar bears do not need to be placed on the Endangered Species List. Now it is time to consider her equally troubling view of wolves.

                                        http://dekerivers.wordpress.com/2008/09/03/sarah-p...

                                        When I first read this I couldn't believe it
                                        then I watched the video and my daughter who thought Palin was in her words "Cool" saw
                                        the video. My daughter has aspirations to become a wild life biologist, well lets just
                                        saw she no longer thinks Governor Palin is "Cool" and lets just say she has a few choice words for her now!

                                          I don't know about you, but I know I'd like to see republicans make it to the Endangered Species List.

                                          No. I don't go to certain areas in the world, cause I could run into Cheney and his shotgun could backfire.
                                          Cheney's shotgun is known to backfire on his friends as well...which reminds me, Palin & Cheney will meet up prior to the election...Cheney might have his shotgun with him...sorry, let me focus on the topic we are on, will there be a wolf as well?

                                                We aren't an endangered species.
                                                And in spite of what cons tell each other on talk shows, most of us aren't pacifists.
                                                We shoot back.

                                            Palin believes in home schooling, pro life no matter what the circumstances, no sex ed for teens and others, a different form of science then what science is, wants to control what type of books libraries can have, said "I haven't focused on it much yet" when asked about the Iraq war, which has killed thousands on both sides and cost billions, is being investigated for bullying an ex employee.

                                            Ok, I am going to admit this, yep I am scared of Palin. I am afraid of 4/8 yrs of McCain/Palin in the White House.

                                              "Allayed concerns of some nervous party insiders,"

                                              Yup. She sure showed them that she, too is capable of talking trash and mudslinging and not talking about any real issues.

                                              God bless Sarah Palin.

                                              I pray that she gets to be President, not just Vice-President.

                                              We need someone who stand-up against the baby killers, sodomites, purveyors of "birth control;" I call it murder.

                                                From the mouth of a moron.

                                                Be careful what you wish for, you may just get what you ask for.

                                                If I was you, I'd pray for a firmer grip on reality.

                                                    Hey Wolfie. Hows it hangin?

                                                    I've decided that at least with you, I'm not going to verbally pummel you until you start whining like an eight year old girl, or John McCain, cause I kind of like you. Sometimes there is just no accounting for taste.

                                                    So any comments that you throw my way on political threads, I'm just going to ignore. There's enough acrimony here already. And the world needs more music lovers.

                                                  War is murder. Think of it as retroactive birth control. And There is more mass murder going on in Iraq than most anywhere else in the world. Your heroes are mass murderers.

                                                    Putin, Ahmedinejad, and the Taliban are praying with you. Would you and Palin consider moving to one of those 3 countries? I am willing to start a donation fund for all of your one way plane tickets to the destination of your choice...

                                                      A bullet would be cheaper, but lest we forget that I'm a Canadian and we are thought of as a moderate, peaceful nation, I'll even offer to chip in a little cash to set up a fund for all republicans to move the the continent of their choice.

                                                      North America has suffered under the weight of the rabid right for long enough and is in danger of sinking even lower, if we don't lighten the load by getting rid of the belligerently delusional.

                                                      I heard that there were some on the religious right who were praying that McCain gets elected and then dies in office. Would that include you, Rosebud?

                                                        I would much prefer that he get elected and then resign. But the man is old and in poor health. It would be providence for him to die in office.

                                                      Sorry I wasn't around to say this 2 days ago, because it needs saying. Palin had a speechwriter. Obama doesn't.
