That's according to his campaign. On top of the $17.35 million he spent the rest of the year, it means he spent $35.35 million of his own money in 2007. That doesn't include whatever money he spent in the past month.

Romney also raised $9 million in other contributions during the fourth quarter.

For the full year, he raised a total of $90 million, including his personal loans, and had 119,000 contributors.

UPDATE: Romney ended 2007 with just $2.43 million cash on hand, which means he spent about $88 million last year. I'd bet that once we learn about the January numbers, we're talking about a campaign that will have cost more than $100 million.
