The little man did beat the big man in this election. The reason Obama raised so much money is because of all the little people (about 65 million who voted for him) donated between $5 and $200 to the campaign. The ‘old boy’ network of the republican party couldn’t compete even though they have vast sums of money

Didn't Obama raise millions more than McCain? Sorry if I sound snide, but we shouldn't use this campaign as proof that the little man can beat the big man! If anything the "big" man won, so we can prove that a nerd who dropped out of college can one day become the world's richest man! :-) 2008/11/5 Mugarura Cavin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Obama's rise to the highest seat, should be a lesson to cliques who think Microsoft will dominate forever, i have i used several distro's of Linux, but right now i might say Linpus is the closest to wrestling Windoze from the lead. -- The real danger is not that computers will begin to think like men, but that men will begin to think like machines.
