Money Makes the Man

While matters such as the war in Iraq and healthcare may have seemed like crucial issues at the beginning of the election, the focus has clearly shifted to the economic crisis on hand. As if McCain hadn't figured this out already, Vice Presidential candidate Joe Biden made sure to point this out at a recent rally. However, lack of focus on the economy might not be McCain's only monetary woe. As Obama continues to raise funds for his campaign, the Republican senator has not been as lucky. Hope for large contribution to the grand old party has just about gone out the window as election day quickly approaches.
While past elections have shown the "liberal elite media," as McCain so lovingly referred to it, to be critical of the massive funds that the Republican party usually raises, however they have remained relatively quiet about the Democrats this season. However, that could change after they see how much it will cost them to spend the evening of November 4th in downtown Chicago.
