Gov. Mitt Romney leads GOP fundraising
"Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney ... is leading the money primary among Republicans," UPI reports.
"Romney reported raising almost $21 million in the first three months of 2007. That does not include $2.35 million that he has lent his own campaign. ...
"'Clearly, Romney has surprised the field,' said Anthony Corrado, a political scientist at Colby College in Maine. 'Not only has he raised more money than the others, it is fair to say he raised substantially more.'"
