Barack Obama breaks the 1 million unique donors mark

Barack Obama is changing the way politics are done in this country in more ways than one. He now has Karl Rove "deHusseining" him, screeching at any Republican that will hear him, "just call him Senator Obama".

Un.

Be.

Lievable.

And just now I heard a slap across the cash-strapped faces of the Clinton and McCain campaigns, brought to you by The People.

As of this writing (the graphic will be changing as more donations come in), Obama has 1,004,293. When I first saw it (about 2 hours ago) the number was at 1,003,994. In 2 hours he got almost 1,000 more unique donors.

That, my friend, is the power of the people.

UPDATE!
OMG: By the time I previewed and finished readying this post, the donations went from 1,004,294 to 1,004,434. This is INSANE!

Words to live by

[P]overty in the world is an artificial creation. It doesn't belong to human civilization, and we can change that, we can make people come out of poverty and have the real state of affairs. So the only thing we have to do is to redesign our institutions and policies, and there will be no people who will be suffering from poverty. So I would hope that this award will make this message heard many times, and in a kind of forceful way, so that people start believing that we can create a poverty-free world. That's what I would like to do.
