Obama gets double boost

Presidential candidate Barack Obama got a double boost in his campaign over the weekend. Former Secretary of State, Colin Powell, gave his endorsement to Obama which gives him a good chance of votership among independents. This is one more reason why I think Obama's momentum will help him continue to overshadow John McCain's campaign.

The second boost Obama recieved this weekend was through his donantions, which hit record numbers: totally $150 million this month (double of what he recieved in August. ) This is also will will also help him overtake McCain from every part of the country.

Will this push Obama through to the end? Well, it will certainly help.
