Obama Fundraising: Half is Secret Money

[KMAN]

More secrets about Obama and his Campaign? What doesn't we want us to know?

Newsmax.com – Secret, Foreign Money Floods Into Obama Campaign

 

[Silence]

it's cute how this right wing "news" organization thinks that Obama should release the names of the private citizens who have donated to his campaign.

But Obama easily could outpace McCain by $50 million to $100 million or more in new donations before Election Day, thanks to a legion of small contributors whose names and addresses have been kept secret.

speaking as one of those small donors I'd be REALLY pissed off if my name and address were released publically.

I've given four different times to the Obama campaign, never more than $30.00 at a time.
