lady in L.A. who matched my funds.

Do you think Barack will call me today and thank me?
Every single one I get is listed "from" Michele (or is it two "e's"). ANyway I did just recieve one "from" Barack...

Daniel --

Today, the people of Wisconsin voted overwhelmingly in favor of a new kind of politics.

They rejected an onslaught of negative attacks and attempts to distract them from the common concerns we all have about the direction of our country.

No doubt we'll hear much more of these attacks and distractions in the days to come.

But the noise of these tired, old political games will not drown out the voices of millions calling for change.

Now is the time to join us -- add your voice to our movement by making your first donation right now. By giving through our matching program, your donation will be doubled by a previous donor who has promised to match your gift.

We are very close to reaching our goal of 500,000 people giving to this campaign in 2008. Help push us over the top by making a matched donation right now:

https://donate.barackobama.com/match

We won't know until late tonight the results of today's Hawaii caucus, but we'll let you know how that turns out tomorrow.

If we win in Hawaii, it will be ten straight victories -- a streak no one thought possible, and the best position we can be in when Ohio, Texas, Rhode Island, and Vermont vote on March 4th.

Thank you for making this possible,

Barack

Sean, Sean -- I rec'd the same letter and my daughter, a reluctant
Obama supporter rec'd the same letter. We have a running joke going that we both thought he was writing only to us -- hence my hope that he will call me today to thank me for contribution.

Back back to his organization: I rec'd my email at about 12:30 a.m. CST. It makes us all feel like part of the campaign.

I can barely get anything accomplished what with Barack emailing
me every 15 minutes.

He has received almost a million separate contributions as of today.

I didn't know this wasn't a joke thread as to these emails.

Sadly my first question to Bama would be about knowledge of "my dude" in Hawaii that cross breeds KB w/ fruits/berries, etc...
