I am one of the 2,050,227 who have given $25 or less, and one of the 1,467,462 who have given more than once!

How about you?

1. I imagine this is a huge contrast to the other side?

Koch, Adelson, Rove, etc. etc.

2. 3 women donated for every 2 men.

That's a very interesting statistic.

And thanks for the link. I just donated.

3. which is less than 4.6%

Obama got 69,499,428 votes in 2008. So over 95% of the people who voted for him, are not giving a dime to his re-election.

Which is not to put him down, but just to note that donors, even small donors, are a very, very small part of the electorate.

4. My checks are ready to be put in the mail.

I gave quite a bit more than $25 dollars to President Obama, but that will probably be a one time thing. I also gave to Emily's List and some Congressional seats. It was my donor day. I'm sure there will be a lot more money coming in now that we are in the last 2 months. I'm hoping that there are huge PACS out there for President Obama since, at this time, it's the law of the land.

I don't think money will buy this election, though. I'm guessing that if Romney is saturating the airwaves come October, people will actually be turned off by his inability to say anything substantive. His base is already voting anyone but President Obama and the undecided voters usually put more thought into their vote. I do see an opening for Romney if he hammers away at the unemployment rate. Just saying that I'm not sure if more ads make any difference. I know the money goes to many other things in a campaign and that's why I'm sending the little that I can.

My mind can't even begin to imagine a Romney/Ryan ticket. They would also bring along a lot of Republican votes down the ticket and that makes me want to run to the bathroom. November 6th is going to be a very long day. I'm already getting very jumpy.

7. President Barack Obama is the FIRST

and only male politician I have donated to! I am a white female who is 61 years old and 4 years ago I gave to Barack Obama some money for his campaign and now I just give him a monthly donations. I can't give a lot but every bit helps.

10. That Truck Driver from New Hampshire.. says

it for me..and, I'm a retired Natural Food Store Worker in Kaua'i who's been giving to the Obama Campaign since 2007 and then the Obama-Biden.

Thanks for this, Scotty! I like how they're breaking it all down with quotes from their peeps.
