Democratic candidate Barack Obama raised almost $6M within one day after Super Tuesday. All of the money came from online donations.

Clinton raised around $13 million in January, excluding her $5 million loan. While Obama raised $32M in January, the most ever raised by a Democrat in January.

This man is a money making machine!

UPDATE: "As of 11:30 p.m. Eastern on Wednesday. By 9:30 a.m. today, the total was $7.1 million, according to the Obama campaign Web site."

    • Actually, now HRC has raised more than $6M and is aiming for $7M.

      I donated today and plan on doing more in the future. She needs to hang on through February to have a chance in March.

    • The latest numbers show that since Super Tuesday, Barack Obama has raised $7.2 million (in 48 hours) and Hillary Clinton has raised $4 million (in 24 hours.)

      Here is the latest article with all the details including Clinton's own donation to her campaign.

    • Money talks. This momentum could push him ahead of Clinton in the long run -- it costs a lot of money to keep running in this race, especially as this looks to be the longest in history.
