Mitt Romney spent $6 million on radio and television advertising

Romney outspends Giuliani on media in past quarter

WASHINGTON - Seeking to catch national GOP presidential frontrunner Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney spent $6 million on radio and television advertising in the past three months, 12 times as much as Giuliani expended on media, campaign finance reports filed yesterday show.

Romney outspent all of his Republican rivals, sinking a total of $21 million into his campaign, compared with Giuliani's $13.3 million in expenses and newcomer Fred Thompson's $5.7 million, according to the reports to the Federal Election Commission.

As the primaries near with no GOP contender breaking away from the crowded field, candidates began ramping up their spending during the last quarter, even though they faced difficulty in raising new funds.

Seems like Romney has learned how to win elections. But what if he has to go up against the master? Anyway, you might enjoy the speech on religion:
