[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You mean a few rich people are ready to take back the White House.  Almost all of his money was donated by people wealthy enough to give the maximum.

Victory for plutocracy.  Only second to the "people-corporations" which will also run completely uncoordinated ads for him.[/quote]

have you seen how many dinners obama has had for limousine libs?  Guess they just dont care as much to donate more money, just want their 50,000 dollar photo-ops.[/quote]

It's not the presence of wealthy people.  It's the relative absence of average people.  Here are the relative stats I saw at the end of May, and I expect that it has only gotten worse over the last few months.  Over half of Obama donors are low dollar donations, ie average people.  Over half of Romney donors are clearly rich people.

Obama:

SIZE OF DONATIONS	PCT.	RANK
Under $200	54%	—
$200 to $499	10%	—
$500 to $1,499	15%	—
$1,500 to $2,499	4%	—
$2,500 (maximum)	18%	—

Romney:
SIZE OF DONATIONS	PCT.	RANK
Under $200	15%
$200 to $499	5%	
$500 to $1,499	19%	
$1,500 to $2,499	5%	
$2,500 (maximum)	54%
