All I've seen in the MSM is an account of how Walker outspent Barrett 7 to 1.

Just an observation...

Would that not be contributions to Walker exceeded Barrett 7 to 1?

If that is true and using a rough figure of 60 million, then contributions to Walker were in the 420+ million range.

I think the 7 to 1 claim is incorrect.

Most media articles say Barrett raised $4m and Walker raised $30m. They're dishonestly leaving out the union number which, from the Hill, is $10m. That would make it $30m to $14m or about 2 to 1.
