To the people that have argued with me about the non-possibility of Barack Obama winning the Democratic primaries, then going on to the Presidential elections, so far I've been able to negate every argument of yours that Clinton is a shoe-in. From the fact that her policies are too left-wing to keep the centrists, the same voters that Obama can keep, to the "weight" of the Clinton name (a negligible point as it is the same surname of Bill, who has had the smear campaign on his hands for the past half a year), to the point that she is the most popular, even though all polls show that Obama has improved, and others that he has overtaken.

Now the only argument left, that Hilary can raise more money, seems to be out the door.

$25 million!? I had reservations about Obama and his fund raising abilities, but this just goes to show that he is popular enough among the people, not just the fat cats. Obviously, by the looks of that too, he has some fat cats in tow, but gee, that's some serious dough. And more surprising, Hilary only made $26 million. Does this show a waining in Hillary's popularity, if it's the case (of the neigh-sayers to the Obama cause) that most people like her more?
