Barack Obama To Announce $20 Million In Funds Raised

Reported live on CNN morning news that Mr. Obama will announce that he's raised $20 million towards his run for the White House.

Still no link up on CNN's web site yet, but I posted a link to their main page if you want to watch for the story a little later.

I never really expected him to do this well after I heard the figures that Hillary Clinton posted. But she topped hers up from her Senate Acct.

I've never seen numbers like this ever before, and I've been watching US elections since the 60's.

Im not surprised. Obama has a large following even those he is being pertrayed as a way behind clinton in the polls. I think this gap is overexaggerated.I have a feeling though he has more than $20mill

Hillary Clinton raises $25 million for her first quarter results, b]while Barack Obama has raised an impressive $22 million. ...

Something in the New York Times.

Aides said Monday that he had collected more than $20 million in donations in the first three months of the campaign, enough to ratchet up the anxiety in the Clinton camp, which announced it had raised $26 million. Mr. Obama’s campaign has yet to release precise information on its total donations or contributors.

Mr. Obama was on CNN saying we'll have to wait for his figures.
