In a video sent to donors, Obama campaign manager David Plouffe says the campaign received 100,000 contributions yesterday, a third of them from first-time donors.
"I think John McCain has harmed himself in the last week, really eroding any capital he had built up in terms of what kind of politician he is," Plouffe says. "But he's really helped our campaign, because so many of you have contributed in the last week. Our field offices had people pouring into them yesterday."
In the primary, Obama's most successful fundraising came during moments of conflict, and McCain's decision to go negative seems to be bearing the same cost.
