Washington Times Reports: Fresh off his win in New Hampshire, making former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romneytwo-for-two in the race for the Republican presidential nomination, his campaign on Wednesday said he had raised $24 million in the final three months of 2011 and had $19 million in cash on hand.
That’s Mr. Romney’s best quarter so far in this campaign, and it comes as he is trying to project an air of inevitability about his nomination heading into South Carolina’s Jan. 21 primary.
“Mitt Romney’s growing financial support is representative of the growing momentum for our campaign,” said Spencer Zwick, Mr. Romney’s finance director.
All told, Mr. Romney raised $56 million in 2011. President Obama and the Democratic National Committee, meanwhile, were on pace to raise more than $200 million in 2011.
