>>The contributions represent a tiny fraction of the record $450 million Mr. Obama has raised ....

... The Times’s analysis, conducted over a few days and looking for obvious anomalies, like names or addresses with all consonants, identified about $40,000 in suspect contributions that had not been refunded by the campaign as of its last filing with the Federal Election Commission, in September.<<<

So you think $40,000 of $450 million in campaign contributions is a big deal? You might consider that lots of Obama's contributons have come from 'small folk,' people who don't have much to offer.

And you also might wish to pause in your anti-Obama criticism on this subject as I'm sure the NYT will do an anlysis of the McCain contributions as well. Would you become disillusioned if it were determined that McCain's faulty campaign contributions came in at a greater percentage of error than Obama's?

3000 donations from more than a million donors?
Sounds like Rove mischief again.
