Democrat Hilary Clinton and Republican Rudy Giuliani led the pack as presidential candidates raked in $13.5 million from Florida donators. Florida will play a key role in next year's presidential election with its early primary, taking place on January 29, 2008. As new Federal Election Commission numbers show, Florida is a key source of money to pay for those campaigns, ranking fourth behind California, New York and Texas. Florida figures have Clinton with $62.5 million and Giuliani with $35.4 million.
For the second consecutive quarter, Democrats outraised Republicans world-wide. Because of such statistics, many Republicans are worried for the election process and the presidential race. I think that worry would be an emotion to expect when dealing with strong opinions and views on politics and elections, especially for the upcoming presidential race, which will be the first race that contains a woman and African-American candidate. Should the Republicans worry?

While Florida is a important state, I don't think that Hillary can cach up to obama with some supporters from Florida. Florida's primaries are all most a mute point with the current rankings.
I don't know, maybe she will suprise us and will win against Obama or it can go the other way in Florida and Obama wins.
Seriously, throughout the whole campaign, I think all eyes are on either Clinton or Obama
