Obama has outraised and outspent Romney per Center for Responsive Politics

.
8/23/12, "Center for Responsive Politics:"

Obama has raised $348,413,128, spent $262,968,849

Romney has raised $193,373,762, spent $163,205,427

-------------------------------------------

Ed. note: NPR this morning said the reverse of the above, that Romney has raised more than Obama, but that Obama is "keeping a stiff upper lip" about it. NPR had an Obama staffer by phone saying they still plan to win with small donors. NPR also had a clip of Obama in booming voice saying, "Romney knows more people who can write a $10 million dollar check than I do." Actually Obama, a multi-millionaire himself, knows people who can write checks for a lot more than that such as George Soros: Soros contributed $26.5 million to a failed effort to defeat President George Bush in last year's (2004) U.S. presidential elections."...(4th parag.)
