Don't forget the 10:1 ratio of donations for mind bending advertising budget.

Show me the money. :)

I believe you are wrong about the advantage of the Republicans.

So far, Bush has collected about $110 MM of an estimated $200 MM for the primary season. The Democratic candidates have collect in total something around $80 MM. The Democratic party has money in the coffers and 527s are gearing up with $10s of millions. Unions will be generously funding advert campaigns.

The GHP advantage may be more like 2:1 or 3:1. I can't see the calculation that gets them to 10:1.
