Obama raised $68 million in fourth quarter of 2011

(I still think that Obama should take a bit of that money and put out a positive ad for the Super Bowl)

President Obama "raked in more than $68 million combined for his re-election campaign and the Democratic Party during the final three months of 2011, gearing up for a formidable challenge against his Republican opponent later this year," the AP reports.

"The large fundraising quarter helped Obama's campaign and the Democratic National Committee surpass $220 million in 2011, bankrolling the president's re-election campaign as Republicans settle on a nominee."
