So who really watched Palin's speech? RNC raises $1m after speech, Obama raises over $10m
The Obama campaign confirms to First Read that it has raised $8 million from more than 130,000 donors since Sarah Palin's speech last night -- and that it's on pace to raise a total of $10 million by the time McCain speaks.

"Sarah Palin's attacks have rallied our supporters in ways we never expected," said Obama spokesman Bill Burton. "And we fully expect John McCain's attacks tonight to help us make our grassroots organization even stronger."

*** UPDATE *** The Wall Street Journal, meanwhile, is reporting that the RNC raised $1 million after Palin's speech.

*** UPDATE II *** The Obama camp now says that it has crossed the $10 million mark.
"I hope she gives a speech every day until the election," Burton says.

Note, McCain cannot raise and use his campaign money anymore because public financing kicks in. So all his contributions go to the RNC now.

she really is a hateful POS.

But I did give to Obama, and that felt much better
