mitt of course is doing fine money wise, he always does. I can't wait to see what paw and bach do though. Newt is doing something but I don't think it is raising money.

Bachmann raised $11 million last year in her congressional race. She can transfer that, apparently, so long as it isn't from this year. I'm thinking people who maxed out and want to donate more should donate to Ron's congressional account so he can afford to transfer his money. It is more like $1.7 million he had, I think, and he'll need some to stay secure with the new gerrymandered district they gave him, but he could transfer dollar for dollar, I would think.

Didn't know she was able to raise that much. Is there a list of where her donations all came from by chance? Ah I'm off to google to check stuff out versus bein lazy waiting for someone to answer my questions for me (-;

She raised a lot last year but she also spent a lot. I read somewhere that her cash on hand at the end of 2010 was very low. She did raise over $2 million in the first quarter of 2011 and is expected to transfer that to her presidential campaign.

A spokeswoman declined comment on what Bachmann’s numbers will look like. But they are likely to be less than $10 million. That includes a transfer of about $2 million that she’s expected to make from her congressional account into her presidential one, people familiar with her plans told POLITICO.

Someone said you can only transfer what you got in a prior year. I don't know myself.
