Mitt Romney wants his money to show his might.
The all-but-declared Republican presidential contender, who has kept his head low for much of the year as he collected cash, raised $10.25 million in a single day Monday after bringing together his network of wealthy donors to dial for dollars in a city with no shortage of them. It's a hefty one-day total that Romney's team hopes will show his strength in the emerging GOP field.
Romney's phone bank fundraiser at the Las Vegas Convention Center, much like one during his first attempt at the Republican nomination, was the centerpiece of a series of fundraising events that included a conference call with volunteers who were asked to solicit their friends and neighbors for donations.

I don’t give a flying f%$k how much cash this guy has....I do not care if he cuts me a personal check for half a mil...he will NEVER get my vote...daffy duck gets my vote before he does
As the midterms showed, you don't need a lot of cash if you have a good message. This will be very true in the primaries where everyone will be gunning for Myth. He has already shown that he has no solid defense for Romneycare and it also appears that he is running to the left to find some mythical stockpile of Rockefeller Republicans. All the money in the world won't save this guy now.
This will be the liberal press sweet heart in no time.
As we flee from the GOP who will be left to vote for?
ML/NJ
Very impressive. Watch who backs him on the street. Obama had them and they tanked the economy for him but Romney will change all that. Still a flawed candidate but do not dismiss him. He has ‘the nod’.
What a waste of dough. They could have given me the money. Could have paid off the house and gone on a nice vacation and bought some gold :(
I’d vote for Daffy over Mitt. Over Newt too.
Could this amount possibly be right? Over ten million dollars in one day? To a candidate who has serious obstacles to re-election?
Smells fishy to me.
theres too many rinos in the gop party. This is sad news
Romney raised $10.25 million. Soros donated $10.2 million of that as a hedge bet.
We really need a good candidate because Obama is very beatable
Sarah and the Tea Party will easily out raise Romney.
While I agree with your sentiment. I think the story is Bullshit. For me to believe, I’d have to see the cash piled up in one spot with a naked hottie rubbing herself with it, of course...not in a sexual way, that is (yeah)....
Raise as much as you want Fagboy I still won’t vote for you.
emphasis on HIS....probably from one account to another...
All I need to hear is “I’m running for President” and she’s got my cash for sure. As much as I can spare, as often as I can. Screw the laws - I’ll donate by credit card and let the feds try to keep track of the donations - that’s where Obama got his third world cash.
