Romney Donates to Himself Again

Republican Mitt Romney said yesterday that he has again given money to his presidential campaign and that he may do so again before Saturday, when the second-quarter reporting period for fundraising ends.

The former venture capitalist, who has a net worth estimated at up to $350 million, declined to say how much money he has contributed.

Romney said that the $4 million he spent on early advertising required the personal contributions.

Still No Challenger for Dole

Rep. Brad Miller (D-N.C.) has decided not to run against Sen. Elizabeth Dole (R-N.C.) in 2008, a decision that leaves Democrats without an obvious challenger for the freshman senator.
