The cash flow from Nevada, South Carolina

Posted by Foon Rhee, deputy national political editor January 17, 2008 01:11 PM

On the eve of the Nevada caucuses and South Carolina Republican primary, a watchdog group reported today that Mitt Romney has raised the most in Nevada, while Rudy Giuliani has brought in the most campaign cash in South Carolina, though he's not really competing there.

Giuliani also leads in fund-raising from the casino industry, with more than $177,000, compared to $103,500 for Republican John McCain, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics. Among Democrats, Hillary Clinton is the top money-raiser from the industry with about $60,000.

In Nevada so far, Romney has raised about $715,000, ahead of Giuliani's $650,000. Clinton leads among Democrats with about $448,000, the center said.

In South Carolina, Giuliani has brought in about $391,000, compared to $329,000 for John McCain. John Edwards, who was born in the state, leads among Democrats with $317,000.

Ron Paul is the only candidate that can save this Republic and that is the fact.
