    Sorry, Wrong Number

    Remember how everyone had to peel their jaws off the floor when Obama’s campaign announced it had raised $32 million in January alone? Guess what? They were wrong. It was $36 million.

    In any other campaign, an additional $4 million for that month would be a major increase. Forty percent in McCain’s case, 30 percent in Hillary's. But for Obama, it’s an afterthought. How's that for a little morning-after insult to injury?
