Richardson Has Good Third Quarter
New Mexico Governor and presidential hopeful Bill Richardson has had a good third quarter in fund-raising, raising about $5.2 million, bringing his yearly total to about $18 million.
The third quarter is usually a slow quarter in fund-raising because everyone is already tapped out.
This puts Richardson in a strong fourth place for the Democratic race for the presidential nomination.
This comes after news that John Edwards will accept matching funds for his lowly funded campaign.
Edwards and Obama are expected to do well in Iowa, which should put more money into their coffers, but Iowa is still a few months away.
This pretty much puts Richardson even with Edwards for third place as far as money goes.
