President Obama has a nearly 10 to 1 cash on hand advantage over Mitt Romney at this moment. .

“Obama’s campaign had $76 million cash on hand at the end of the month; the four GOP candidates had less than $13 million combined. Even better for Obama is the fact that Romney’s opponents closed the fundraising gap significantly, which will reduce Romney’s spending advantage going forward.”

Mitt Romney has only $7.7 million cash on hand as of the end of January.

Meanwhile, during a live performance recently, Bill Maher presented a check for $1 million to a Super PAC which supports President Obama’s reelection campaign.

Tucker Carlson deserves some credit for this, after first saying that Iran, and presumably its entire population, should be annihilated:

“It’s my fault that I got tongue tied and didn’t explain myself well last night. I’m actually on the opposite side on the Iran question from many people I otherwise agree with. I think attacking could be a disaster for the US and am worried that Obama will do it, for fear of seeming weak before an election. Of course the Iranian government is awful and deserves to be crushed. But I’m not persuaded we or Israel could do it in a way that doesn’t cause even greater problems. That’s the main lesson of Iraq it seems to me.”

Indeed, Tucker. Hopefully Senator Coons, and President Obama will listen.
