Today Barack Obama issued a non-binding guarantee to his donors that he will win the White House. After raising $7.8 million at a series of San Francisco events, Obama told a crowd the money was needed to break a cycle of cynicism in politics where the public - for some reason - seems to think that they need to donate money to get their voices heard. "It is only by using this money I can prove how irrelevant you are," Obama said to puzzled cheers.
Meanwhile John McCain continued to question Obama's ability to lead, noting that, "As an outsider Obama lacks the experience to realize we need an insider to act like an outsider to change politics in Washington." McCain pointed to the recent conflict in Georgia as evidence that when it comes to our next commander in chief, we need someone with the experience to do nothing about events most Americans don't understand.
