Guess the number game

$822,384

Bruce nailed it:

Political donations thus far, by Wisconsin republicans to republican candidates, in the 2008 presidential campaign.

He is absolutely correct. Who knew that Wisconsin citizens had given so much more to Republicans than Democrats? For a county by county breakdown click this.

This is a phenomina that is not just limited to Wisconsin. Check out the whole country here.

Now you simply can not argue that as a whole Dems are doing a better job of raising money nationally.

However, why has this story not been told in Wisconsin? I guess it just does not fit the MSM template.
