We did it! $10,120 for this historic Obama for America campaign -- and with hours to spare. I can't tell you how proud I am of what our community has accomplished here in the two short weeks since this fundraising rally began. The stats:
Our Goal: $10,000
Total Raised / % of Goal: $10,120.00 / 101.2%
Contributions / Avg. Contribution: 345 / $29.33
Every day, I heard from our friends on this site about how tough these times are, but that they were willing to sacrifice $1 here or $5 there in the name of a better way forward. You did it for hope. You did it for change. You helped to make history in a time when money is tight and the economy is crashing down around us. And out of these sacrifices will surely come a new day -- a renewal of an American ideal that was nearly lost during this eight year dark ride.
Congratulations and thank you. Now let's go win this thing.
Oh, and as promised here's an exclusive chapter from One Nation Under Fear. The most requested chapter was Chapter 3: The 'No Attacks Mythology', so enjoy! (Download the pdf)
