Get PINKDOME Merchandise!

Catty. Chatty. And Occasionally Trashy.

Money Talks, Bullshit Walks

John McCain may finally have to face reality as his fundraising goes in the shitter. Raising just $11 million in the second quarter has put him a race for the bottom. He's laid off campaign staffers and some senior aides have taken a pay cut or are volunteering their time. (HA! How stupid could someone be to volunteer their time for John McCain?)

In much more interesting news, Barack Obama raised $32 million in the same time period and Hillary Clinton raised $27 million. So, if the race were about fundraising it seems the money is favoring the Dems this year.

Best news of all? During that same time period, I raised $4.87 and knitted an afghan.
