Wow, I don't know what sort of magic Maggie Williams brought to the table, but obviously this part of a larger strategy... and its working. Talk about positive spin recovery, the gamble is working... but not quite good enough. The divide and confuse part did not work, and in fact served to rally our throops even more so. This rallying dynamic was an unknown to them and to me, and I must say I am more than pleasantly surprised. We are at 1,000,050 donors at 4:05AM CST. Amazing, really amazing.
Despite loosing, she set a tone, and created a powerful reference frame, all good things for her donor pool, and her future career in politics, but its no where near enough to bypass our momentum. Short of a major happening in the next few days, she is likely finished. Yet, the American Leadership Project (the 527 set up to campaign for her...iffy I know) still could have a lot of cards to play over the next week... thus, we need to keep on the phone, and keep on donating. We must not let our guard down.
If you haven't donated yet, even $5 helps. My initial target is 100 donors of $5 each, and then I'll raise the bar, and keep on breaking the thermometer. My donation page is at

If you haven't made any calls yet, by all means check out the Barack's inspired phone bank army. We had a conference call last friday night, and it was incredibly helpful... and I'm a newbie there.

If any member of the group Beards for Obama donates to my page within the next 72 hours, I'll kick in an extra $50 this weekend, and delay cutting mine until Barack win's the nomination.
