Republican presidential candidate John McCain reports spending $37 million in September and has $47 million for the campaign in October.Our Rich Uncle Barack
He entered September with $95 million in the bank. Along with the [$150 million] he raised last month, the Democratic National Committee took in $50 million, which can be spent on his behalf. Analysts say Obama and the party likely will at least match those figures in October, giving the Democrat about $500 million for the two-month campaign ending with the Nov. 4 election.Well there we are. John McCain is going to have to give handjobs for nickels, four at a time, just to stagger to the finish. Obama gets to throw money at half hour campaign commercials, have caviar and fois gras fights, genetically create unicorns that he will ride to campaign events, and pay Russia to send David Axelrod into low earth orbit every weekend for space canvassing.
Now this doesn't take into account the money the RNC has to spend, but I think we all see how this is shaping up. McCain spends it all on robot harassment of citizens with Bill Ayers messages and groveling ads about how he's not Bush that air once in rural Montana. Obama outspends on ads 6-1 and starts running commercials in Alabama just to fuck with John. More importantly this translate to get out the vote operations. Apprently Obama will be able to get you to the polls in your choice of a Maybach, Benz, or Aston Martin. McCain is hoping fear of a black planet will drive his voters to the polls. So if you see an Obama ad that aks you by name to vote for him and see McCain walking up and down a street wearing a sandwich board that says "Nobama" and handing out shoddily xeroxed pamphlets.....well, now you know why. $$$$$
