The Fix reports:
Mitt the Money Man: Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney continued his aggressive fundraising (and fund spending) through his Free and Strong America PAC in March, affirming his much-speculated-about interest in a return run for president in 2012. Last month Romney collected just over $300,000, bringing his total haul over the first three months of 2009 to $871,000 -- a VERY impressive sum given the state of the economy and the donor fatigue within the Republican Party. {...} Romney's fundraising prowess -- coupled with his personal wealth -- set a high bar for any other Republicans looking seriously at the 2012 race. Given the likelihood that President Obama will raise in the neighborhood of $1 billion (or more) for his 2012 reelection, a demonstrated ability to raise tens of millions seems almost a prerequisite for the GOP nominee.
Let's keep the Mitt-mentum going!
