You know more than the fact that Barack Obama out-raised Sen. Clinton by a few million dollars, which is quite a feat don’t get me wrong, I am still amazed this quarter as I was last quarter that Democrats are raising so much money. Just a few years ago the conventional wisdom was that Dems could never got the support like Republicans saw with direct-mail and through talk radio, not to mention business support. Here we are since 2004 when Dems first started raking in the big cash and they now seem to be beating out the Republican candidates by an enormous amount.

Now I do feel like come general election time Republicans will rally their base and get behind one candidate and money will be raised to compete. With that said if the right combination of dems got together they could possibly launch a real assault on Republicans. A Clinton/Obama candidacy seems unlikely and come primary time when they get ruff with each other it might well be ruled out. Imagine though the massive amount of money that could be raised with the two. It could really be a sight to see.

In the end if I were a Republican strategist I would be starting to worry that something isn’t right ‘out-there’ and I would have to start thinking it is time to really move as far away from the last six years.
