$52 Million for Obama in June

News item from July 17:Obama raises $52 million in June,which is his second highest monthly total to date.Wow.I would guess by the election money totals have to be close to a billion.Money is the grease on which the ball bearings of politics ride.Inflation has rarely been mentioned in this race but that seems likely to change.Polls show that voters are more concerned about the comatose economy and crippling gas prices than about wars in Iraq and elsewhere.Why is so little said about Osama bin-Laden?Is he still being hunted,or did we stop searching?He must be approaching the all-time record for being public enemy No. 1 and still eluding capture.I remember a $25 million dollar in gold bounty offered for him.The situation of seeming stalemate in the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq remind me of 1980 when President Carter could not get the hostages in Iran freed.
