Perhaps the biggest unknown in the race is Romney, a multimillionaire who has chipped in at least $17 million of his own money for the race already. Earlier this week the former governor confirmed that he had dipped into his fortune again, though he and his aides declined to say exactly how much he had anted up.

On Wednesday Romney, who spent almost $200,000 a day during the first nine months of last year, pulled TV advertising in Florida and South Carolina to concentrate his resources on Michigan. The campaign pushed back against speculation that Romney is out of money and spun the change as simply a strategic decision. "We'll have the resources we need to compete," Romney spokesman Kevin Madden told NEWSWEEK. Given Romney's willingness to spend his own money on the race, that seems certain.

    This is ridiculous!!! They mentioned EVERY candidate other than Ron Paul and Dr Paul had better numbers than most of the candidates that they mentioned. As mentioned by another commenter he raised over $6 million dollars in one day - an all time record - and raised $20 million dollars in the last quarter of 2007! Yet Huckabee is the success story for raising only 8 million in the same period??? WAKE UP PEOPLE, YOU ARE BEING LIED TO!
