Fundraising

Politco.com has fundraising numbers for some Ohio Republicans:
Many other targeted Republicans raised more than $200,000 each in preparation for competitive races in expensive media markets..... Rep. Deborah Pryce (R-Ohio) took in $208,000.

Other targeted lawmakers did not fare as well. Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-Ohio) raised $20,000 despite facing two competitive elections. She has $17,000 cash on hand.

Rep. Ralph Regula (R-Ohio) raised $1,560 for the quarter, giving him only $91,000 in the bank. Regula, 82, has been the subject of retirement rumors....

Open Secrets has the numbers for presidential candidates. If you look at the list for the Republican candidates and their fundraising totals, you can see that Romney has a clear lead in the money. Sen. John "stay the course" McCain is not doing too well.

I saw a great bumper sticker....... 11.04.08. That is the date of the next presidential election.
