As of this posting, the official amount is $1,014,607.76. Remember the little bit of press coverage Ron got when he had more cash on hand than McCain? Well, expect this recent feat to cause a large swelling in coverage once again.

So much for being the “internet candidate” that the press always seems to bill him as. If his supporters are willing to give him over $1 million in the course of five days, I’m sure they are going to be at the polls come voting time.

I can’t wait to see how Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilley, and the rest of the Fox News crew spins this one. Or will they even cover it? Sure, they can try to discredit the online polls, but will they be able to ignore this?

Congratulations to the Ron Paul campaign and all the people who donated money to his cause.
