Ghoulianni raised $50,000,000 and got 1 delegate.
Romney raised over $88,000,000, including $40,000,000 of his own money to get 294 delegates (that is almost $300,000 per delegate).

Obama has raised over $100,000,000.

Clinton has raised nearly $116,000,000.

McCain has raised about $43,000,000.

Appears to me that expenditures for this "election" will eventually top half a billion dollars.

This is insane, corrosive and incompatible with democracy.
