...of the world, it never hurts to follow the money. An article in Politico today details the amount of money raised recently by some 2012 Republican presidential hopefuls.
Between July 1 and the beginning of this year, according to reports filed with the Federal Election Commission, [Mitt] Romney’s PAC (Free and Strong America) brought in more than $1.6 million, [Sarah] Palin’s (Sarah PAC) raised nearly $1.4 million, [Mike] Huckabee’s (Huck PAC) raised $519,000 and [Tim] Pawlenty’s (Freedom First) raked in nearly $1.3 million, though it’s only been up and running for three months.
But according to a report filed with the Internal Revenue Service, [Newt] Gingrich’s group, American Solutions for Winning the Future, lapped them all, raising $6.4 million in the second half of the year.
That's why I'm keeping a close eye on Gingrich in 2012.
