Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has been good for Sen. Barack Obama's campaign fund, with sources in the Illinois Democrat's presidential campaign saying he has raised $8 million online from more than 130,000 donors since her vice presidential nomination acceptance speech last night at the Republican National Convention.

Campaign aides say Obama is on pace to record $10 million in post-Palin contributions by the time Sen. John McCain takes the stage this evening for his presidential nomination acceptance speech at the convention in St. Paul.
