Obamarama
The Obama campaign has had nearly one million people donate -- I think I was just number 931,103! (You can check the count here!)It was very exciting! There is a donation-matching program, and after I made my donation, I got to see the name of the person who matched my donation (Hi Warren!), and send that person a message. So if you donate during the magical matching period, you get double the efficacy!
From the campaign:
On Tuesday, February 19th, the people of Wisconsin and Hawaii voted overwhelmingly in favor of a new kind of politics.Go leave my blog and do that thing with your money now please.
Barack Obama has now won 10 consecutive contests, but the race for the Democratic nomination remains close. It's going to be a fight for every vote and every delegate in the remaining 16 contests.
We are within striking distance of something historic: one million people donating to this campaign.
This unprecedented foundation of support has built a campaign that has shaken the status quo and proven that ordinary people can compete in a political process too often dominated by special interests.
I also signed up to match someone else's contribution, so it's possible that if you donate now, we could be campaign contribution buddies!

i did the exact same thing yesterday and matched some dude's donation. awesome.
Cool follow-up -- the guy who matched my contribution wrote:
Jennifer,
Je vous en prie!!
Means you're welcome in French,
since I live in France now,
must practice "mon fracaise" you see,
but I'm trying to make sure,
there isn't any chance,
that we ever see,
another Republican,
posing as our president,
in the land of the free.
Cheers,
Warren
