Democratic Party "unity" watch

One sign of unity between the Obama and Clinton camps was supposed to be Hillary Clinton's donors' willingness to raise nice bunches of cash for the Obama campaign. So. Is that happening?

Doesn't sound like it, as the NY Times reports that the Obama camp is slow to raise $$. Why?

"...the campaign is struggling to meet ambitious fund-raising goals it set for the campaign and the party. It collected in June and July far less from Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s donors than originally projected."

Unity--it's easy to talk about; not so easy to come by.
