I can answer this one.

Sure, Bush has raised more money as an individual candidate, but lets look at all the money going into the 2004 presidential race so far...

http://www.opensecrets.org/presidential/index.asp

Bush has raised about $35.1M

The top 3 Dems in the list:

John Kerry (D) $16,028,266

John Edwards (D) $11,936,277

Howard Dean (D) $10,545,457

I add that up as about $38.4 million and there are another 7 Dems on that list, for (just some quick math in my head) for another ~ $27 Million.

so tell me, who is it again that is raising so much money?

EDITED for in head math error
