Obama Catches Up to Clinton

Democrat Barack Obama raised $25 million for his presidential bid in the first three months of 2007, placing him on a par with front-runner candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton and ruining her image as the party's inevitable nominee. Obama fundrasing number came from an official in his campaign who spoke on condition of anonymity. This made Obama an even more fierce competitor in this election. People are saying these facts are showing that he is a "powerful new force in presidential politics this year." People are beginning to see that he is a significant threat to Clinton.

i think that Obama is a very strong contender in the election and i think that he is strengthening his status as a significant threat to Clinton. Plus i agree with Obamas strong believe to get troops out of Iraq.

Obama is spreading his name at quite a speed. The only candidates that I know who are running for the presidency are Clinton and Obama. I guess that shows how much of a good job he has done.

Obama is on the right course and I agree with you. He is a favorite among many people and i believe if he continues to do what he is doing he might become more popular than Hillary Clinton and then who knows what.

I think Obama is winning a lot of public support for many reasons. His policies are well-liked, his ethnicity is quite rare in the presidential scope, and he just seems like an overall respected candidate. I also think he is a strong contender and will probably do considerably well with the ballots.

I believe Obama's dedication to his campaign reveals the dedication he would give as President. It is impressive to see such a man gain so much support from small donors and continue to do so everyday. His commitment to the Election demonstrates the qualities he offers to the United States and may give him many votes in 2008.

First of all I am very glad to see a female candidate and an African American candidate running for president. I am even more glad that one of them might actually be our next president. And I agree with everyone that Obama has been doing a good job campaigning.
