Ron Paul dominates Q4!!!
No wonder no one wanted to report their numbers until the last minute. Based on opensecrets.org, an AP article and your findings, here are my rough Q4 calculations...
Ron Paul = $19.5 million
Guiliani = $14.4 million
Romney = $ 9.0 million
Huckabee = $ 6.6 million
McCain = $ 5.4 million*
(*a confilicting article reported $10 million)
Since it's doesn't make the media darling McCain look good I'm sure it'll only be a footnote in tomorrow's news.
bump!
By tomorrow, Ron Paul will have raised as much as McInsane did all last quarter.

How much was RP in debt? $0!!!!!!! someone needs to make a video of this!
Absolutely! If candidates
Absolutely! If candidates are going to borrow money running for president, imagine what type of money they'll borrow AS president!
Ron Paul needs to stick that fact in the face of his opponents! General America will love that one; its on their thinking level.
