			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Citing reports alleging that Sen. Barack Obama  has received illegal campaign contributions from overseas, McCain campaign manager Rick Davis called for the Obama campaign to release its small-donor list ($200 or less) and live up to its promise of transparency. Federal rules don&#8217;t require disclosure of such donors.</p>
<p>Davis offered sardonic praise for Obama&#8217;s record-setting fund-raising for the month of September &#8212; $150 million &#8212; and said Obama will go down as &#8220;the greatest fund-raiser in presidential political history.&#8221;<span id="more-13766"></span></p>
<p>However, Davis took the opportunity to question some of Obama campaign&#8217;s contributors. Specifically, he mentioned a <a title="http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2008/07/obamas-gazan-co.html" href="http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2008/07/obamas-gazan-co.html" target="_blank">report</a> that an Obama supporter in the Gaza Strip ordered $30,000 worth of T-shirts from the campaign.</p>
<p>Davis also announced that the Republican National Committee will unveil a searchable Website tomorrow that will disclose all donors within 24 hours of their contribution.</p>
<p>Unfortunately for the McCain campaign, as is so often the case, even when it is probably right, Davis&#8217; message is somewhat overshadowed by <a title="http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/1008/McCain_camp_hits_up_Russian_ambassador.html#comments" href="http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/1008/McCain_camp_hits_up_Russian_ambassador.html#comments" target="_blank">reports</a> that the campaign solicited contributions &#8212; which, if given, would be illegal &#8212; from the Russian envoy to the United Nations.</p>
