How much will all the major party candidates fundraise in 2012?

And I mean for their entire campaigns. Also, please say who will win the GOP nomination and the general election.

How could one predict that in July of 2010?

I have a crystal ball.

That's kinda what we do here.

Obama beats Newt.

They both raise about 900 million. A Billion if the Economy is back on track.

I'm assuming your estimate is in 2012 dollars, not that it matter much?

You're asking about just the eventual Dem. and GOP nominees, or about all the candidates in the primaries too?  I would assume that Romney will raise the most on the GOP side again, especially if we're counting $ that he donates to his own campaign.  But no idea on the exact figures.

I'm asking about all the major candidates in the primaries, as well as about the eventual Democratic and GOP nominees? And joke candidates can be excluded.
