$51 million!

Yesterday the McCain camp bragged it had raised $27 million in July.

Today the Obama campaign reported its July haul: $51 million, with 65,000 new donors. All told, Obama has 2 million donors.

I know the McCain camp wants to say Obama is just a celebrity, and they are putting out all kinds of ads with dishonest information saying he would be bad for America.

But if the ads are working, and if Obama is bad for America, why do so many people want to give money to his campaign? Do they all hate America?

And since when do Americans give direct donations to celebrities?
