  • Mitt Romney and Ron Paul are the only two candidates who haven’t borrowed anything.
  • Not surprisingly, Obama borrows the most.
  • After Obama, Mitt Romney spends the most. Next in line is Ron Paul.
  • When Michele Bauchmann dropped out she had a cool 1 million dollars in her pocket. Did she give it back?
