100 Million Dollar Man: Romney Sets Fundraising Record
ABC News ^

Posted on 07/05/2012 2:05:29 PM PDT by Joe27

Mitt Romney reportedly raised more than $100 million in June, the best fundraising month of his campaign so far.

Politico's Mike Allen first reported the total, which includes contributions to both Romney's campaign and the Romney Victory Fund—a joint account between the Romney campaign and the Republican National Committee. A Romney spokeswoman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

That's two record-breaking months in a row for the Romney team. In May, the presumptive Republican nominee raised nearly $77 million—almost $17 million more than President Barack Obama's re-election campaign. The Obama campaign has not yet announced its June totals.

Mitt Romney is reported to have raised OVER $100 million in the month of June. Combine this with incoming jobs numbers that might be another example of Obama's failure and it looks like this is going to be a tougher race than some thought Obama would get. We always knew we could compete. I didn't vote for Mitt in the primary but I'm behind him now. It'll be interesting to see what Obama posts...I'd predict under $75 million.

Treason from John Roberts may have had a positive financial effect on this political campaign, but it’s still not worth it.

And it's only been a week since Roberts betrayed the working citizens of America.

If Oboma keeps pushing his ObomaTax, Romney is a shoe in (as long as he doesn't roll over and play dead on ObomaTax. It's a reelection killer. The job numbers are taking care of themselves!).

Pushing Obama T-shirt & designer pocketbook sales, asking folks to forego wedding/anniversary/birthday gifts & donate the money to The Won, begging/pleading with donors by phone while on Air Force One ..... the trend is not his friend. :-)

and he is doing what exactly with this money? I would have thought the TV would be wall-to-wall ads smacking Obama upside the head by now.

R-Money is great for fundraising - but the last two weeks he seems to have lost a bunch of steam.

Get of the damn Jet Ski and into the streets Mitt!

Good. Sauce for the goose! Bury Obama! Give him a taste of his 2008 medicine. He had so much extra cash he sent one million dollars to every democrat senate candidate, resulting in a nine seat gain and a filibuster-proof majority.

Good News.
November is coming.
Oust Obama
I am hoping Obama’s “billion dollar” campaign projections are just another lie.

There is a lot of cash sitting on the sidelines of this economy, doing nothing but being whittled down by inflation.

It’s no surprise that some of the owners of that cash might spend some to try to get different economic policies in the White House so that they can afford to get back in business with the rest.

Mr. RomneyCARE is all about MONEY, and defending HIMSELF
by his surrogates.

When will MR. RomneyCARE refute ROMNEYCARE, admit it
was a mistake, apologize to Gov. Palin, and
promise to be a REAL CONSERVATIVE AND LIE NO MORE?

I wonder how long 0bama will let it go before he cracks and invokes martial law and follows up with the attempted repeal of the 22nd?

The one thing hanging over Romney’s head if he is elected will be the promise to repeal Obamacare. If he doesn’t do it, he will be a one term president.

All the money in the world won’t buy Romney any love. Most of his own supporters can’t even stand him.
