When I first saw the topic on this article, i chuckled to myself. Democrats are raising more money because they are by far more popular. This country has seen a republican rule for the last 7 years and many Americans are tired of the constant downslide of reputation, power, and dollar value; of course, most citizens will have a need to blame someone (its just human nature) and the blame will be put on the republican party. Also, democrats are mixing up the polls. I consider myself a conservative when it comes to politics, but i have my eyes set on Obama winning it all. The Democratic selection for this primary offers so much more than the Republican plate. Also, the rivalry between Clinton, Obama, and Edwards heats up every debate, while the Republicans don't make much progress on the party's campaign as a whole.
All in all, each candidate is making money, and every candidate is extending their budget to catch all computer users (which is mostly the young vote rockers, ages 18-25). Every candidate will be paying his best dollar and hire the best political campaign managers. The managers will pay top dollar to have connectivity to those who surf the web through top bar ads, and social sites like Myspace, or Facebook. And when it comes down to it, almost every candidates internet campaign is similar. If Americans wanted another Republican, we would notice it. But the case is that voters are wanting a change, and they see a change through a Dem. candidate
