Obama raises $7.8 million in the city by the bay.


SAN FRANCISCO - Barack Obama raked $7.8 million Sunday at three separate fundraisers in San Francisco, telling a VIP dinner crowd — many of whom paid $28,500 to attend — that he would win the presidency in November but to expect a tough battle with Republicans in the meantime.

"John McCain, all he wants to do is talk about me," Obama told supporters.


"They know they can't win on the issues. So what they'll do is they'll try to scare people:'He's risky. He's risky. We're not sure.'"

Obama was introduced at the dinner by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, who called him "a leader God has blessed us with at this time."

Nancy might be doing some talking for your with God soon. Looks like the Speaker will have one term as she continues to pray over Bush. Funny isn't it Mucharraf was going to be impeached so he resigned like Nixon. Bush has done more crimes then both yet Pelosi is just praying. I hope we get a Speaker of the House who does more then pray for crimes against the United States by a President or VP. Nixon would have loved to have Pelosi as his Speaker of the House he would have never been charge with his crimes.
