Obama's getting more money from AVERAGE AMERICANS.

There is no such thing as an average American. And Obama is getting his money from a very small subset of the total population. And the men and women of Goldman Sachs have as much right to contribute their hard-earned money to both candidates as your imagined average Americans.

If Obama gets the majority of his money from people like you, me and Bobo (you know, likely Obama donors) then the fact that he gets a relatively small amount from special interest groups, while relevant, is FAR less relevant.

Bobo is employed by Big Gov't Education and I'm employed by Big Evil Corporation. Where does our individuality end and our membership in a special interest begin?

"Obama is getting his money from a very small subset of the total population."

But his subset is exponential bigger than Grampa Death's.  Maybe by a few factors.  So Obama vs. idealized candidate. Obama loses.  Obama vs. the actual other candidates.  Obama wins in a laugher.

Guys, don't fall into this Obama's not perfect so we must support McCain unquestioningly nonsense.

Oh, and bobo and I are employed by small government.  School Districts are not BIG gov't.

No matter who wins, America loses. I'm saddened that one of these two clowns is our next president.

But the only pertinent question right now is who is the better clown for the job.

You're right, Prof. I promise to do some serious research and determine who would be a better president -- Shit Sandwich or Douchebag.
