Obama Tops Clinton in Primary Haul
Insurgent presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., raised $24.8 million in primary cash for his campaign almost 30 percent more than did frontrunner Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., with $19.1 million, the candidates' Federal Election Commission documents filed on Sunday evening indicate. Obama also nearly tied Clinton in total donations, having raised $25.8 million compared to Clinton's $26 million an astounding achievement for a political novice going up against such a veteran.
