Scoop: Clinton raised $8 million online in 3Q

[William769]

Democratic presidential contender Hillary Rodham Clinton raised about $8 million online in the third quarter, said Clinton's Internet director Peter Daou.

That's an initial tally of the results, he said. The $8 million came from online contributions submitted by Clinton supporters generated through e-mail solicitations and other initiatives.

That number is almost double the $4.2 million that Clinton's campaign brought in online in the first quarter.

The $8 million figure also exceeds the entire haul that several of her rivals reported for the entire quarter. For example, Clinton's fellow Democrats John Edwards reported raising a total of $7 million for the third quarter and Bill Richardson's campaign on Sunday said it had raised $5.2 million.

1. They are a well-oiled machine.

We'll see if mucho-moola equals mucho-votes in January.
