Yeah its working out to be around a mil for each network, give or take 100k.
And SaneinSF: McCain has his own problems with donations he’s received. Check into the FEC – they sent letters telling both candidates to fix (return) “illegal” funds. Its not particularly surprising some money from overseas got thru to both candidates considering the staggering number of donations and donors.

SaneInSF: Do you have any sources to back that claim up? This is the first I’ve heard of such. I’d be very interested.

When a good chunk of your donates come illegally from overseas, you better believe he has lots of dough.

I hope that if the race is no contest at that point he simply sponsors an uninterrupted episode of The Family Guy with a short introduction encouraging people to vote…that would be cool.

How about the episode “Da Boom” from Season Two?
