Campaign funding stats are out today, from the Romney folks. He raised a paltry 12.6 million in March, compared to President Obama's 52 million. The overwhelming majority of Obama's money is coming from small donors ... less than $250. Almost all of Romney's money is coming from millionaires, and other wealthy. Writing on the wall. Romney lacks the support of his own party, and independents.

This man will never get elected because he fails to inspire Republicans to do much of anything. Most will just vote the ticket because they hate Obama...thankfully, this won't be enough to win an election. What say you? Is anyone truly inspired by, or enthusiastic about, Mitt Romeny? |

The overwhelming majority of Obama's donations come from people giving less than $250 but the majority of the actual money comes from a handful of corporate bundlers, same as Romney. In many instances, literally the same bundlers as Romney.

Ok, so here's the truth.
Romney has best month in fundraising, topping $12.5M - The Hill's Ballot Box |

Not sure how you equate 3% giving over $250 to a majority? |

Most of Obama's money comes from that 3%.

Romney has his best fundraising month and his support is dwindling? I'm confused.

Another dumb post by Obama zombies. Romney has been fighting several candidates for the nomination, Obama none. Romney has spent millions flying from place to place campaigning, Obama uses taxpayer money to campaign.
