Ok, so it's only a passing reference that we have more cash than McCain, but I'll take it!

Behind the Big Haul
Who are the bundlers helping the presidential candidates shatter all those fundraising records? (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/07/10/AR2007071001915.html?referrer=email)

Some top-tier campaigns that pledged to disclose their bundlers haven't yet managed to do so: We're referring here to former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney (R) and Arizona Sen. John McCain (R), though, in truth, it feels a bit churlish at this point to ding Mr. McCain, who has less money in the bank than Rep. Ron Paul (R-Tex.). Mr. Romney's campaign says he plans to post a list of bundlers on his Web site around the time the latest fundraising reports are due, in mid-July.

Bradley, what is this "bundler" stuff? Would you explain what this is a little more, please?

It seems that whenever McCain is mentioned in the press they go "oh by they way he has less money than Paul." He can't be feeling too good.
