The Roof, the Roof, the Roof Is On Fire
The DNC is happily picking away at Giuliani's recently released numbers, and they have uncovered some fun facts. My favorite:
Top Heavy: $10.3 million of $11.4 were itemized, meaning from people who have given at least $200. That's about 90%. Fully 65% of this quarter's donations came from individuals who have given $2000 or more to date.
Compare that to Obama's campaign, at least for the quarters already examined, where about 45% of the money raised came in donations of under $1,000. (Apples and oranges, I know, but interesting.)
Also, he has 24 political consultants on staff. Someone should tell that to McCain.
