Governor Romney's "Impressive" Fundraising:

ABC's George Stephanopoulos: Governor Romney "The Big Winner Of The Day." "And the big winner of the day, Charlie. No question about that. If you count the money that can only be used in primaries, he may have even outraced Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side. What his team is hoping for is that this money can be translated into momentum that will catapult him into the top tier of Republican candidates." (ABC's "World News," 4/2/07)

NBC's Andrea Mitchell: "Romney, who spent the day meeting with aides, is now the undisputed winner of the money primary." (NBC's "Today Show," 4/3/07)

Los Angeles Times' Dan Morain And Michael Finnegan: "Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney emerged as the surprise Republican fund-raising leader today, disclosing he amassed $23 million in the first three months of the year."
