Bradley in DC

The top Republican candidates raised less than their Democratic counterparts — Rudolph W. Giuliani, the former mayor of New York City, took in $17.27 million, Mitt Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, took in $13.73 million and Senator John McCain of Arizona raised $11.2 million — but so did the other Republicans.
After them, the only other Republican who managed to raise more than $2 million in the quarter was Representative Ron Paul of Texas, whose antiwar candidacy and whose following on the Internet helped him take in $2.35 million. Nearly half of Mr. Paul’s money came in donations of less than $200.
Mr. Paul outraised several other well-known Republican candidates. Senator Sam Brownback of Kansas raised $1.4 million; Mike Huckabee, the former Arkansas governor, raised $763,000, and Tommy G. Thompson, the former Wisconsin governor and member of the Bush administration, raised $445,000. . .
On the Republican side, Mr. Giuliani has about $14.6 million left to spend on the primary, while Mr. Romney has $12.1 million left, though he has demonstrated he is willing to reach into his own deep pockets to bolster his campaign. Mr. Paul has $2.3 million in primary money left, more than Mr. McCain does.
