After Obama’s impressive Super Tuesday showing, he raised a record amount for February — $55 million. That’s almost double what Hillary raised, and roughly half the donations came from people that identified themselves as first-time donors.
That’s the good news for the Obama camp. The bad news? They spent a whole lot of that to whittle down Hillary’s leads in Ohio and Texas, but still came up a little short.
So the important questions are now: 1.) Will Obama get as much financial support this month as he did in February, now that Hillary showed she’s still a viable candidate? And, 2.) Will the upcoming Pennsylvania battle, which leans toward Hillary like Ohio and Texas, force the Obama camp into panic mode, much the same way Hillary’s campaign acted early this month?
