You think Obama doesn't have a bunch of deep pockets on his side either? The average contribution to his campaign is $1000. But look at those poor, disparet people Obama has in his corner. You know, like Oprah.Flaming_Maniac wrote:

Politicians are always going to play to their strengths. McCain will get fat checks from rich white people, Obama will get money from people desperately reaching for their pocketbooks in the name of change.
That's all there is to it, there is no moral superiority on either side.
- Low estimate: Average donations stayed at $128/donor: ~$56 million
- Medium estimate: Average donations went to $175/donor: ~$76.5 million
- High estimate: Average donations increased to $321/donor: ~94 million

Either way you are way off the mark.
