At first, I thought the delay in posting the ostensible "contributions" of the primitives to the campaign of Barry "Goldwater" Obama was because my fellow alum was otherwise preoccupied, what with the arrival of a new heir in his family.

Our goal: $50,000 for Barack Obama ... (link to the DU/Obama fundraising page)
http://my.barackobama.com/page/outreach/view/main/du
In 2004, we raised $40,000 for John Kerry in just one month. This year, we have five months and a lot more visitors, so we should be able to do better.
Remember to click this link before you donate, so we can keep track of our total:

Apparently the new arrival wasn't the cause for no figures being posted for more than a month.
It appears the primitives are flickering out, when it comes to making promises of sending dough.
One reasonably assumes the total of $15,499 includes circa $14,000 in "pledges" and $1,000 in "in kind" contributions, such as what the bird-smacking stoned red-faced primitive does with his outdated office supplies.
