Excerpt:

Presidential campaigns still owe millions of dollars to experts, previous staffers, phone companies, software suppliers, data source management firms, direct-mail firms, indicator printers, event-productions business, and banks; in other words, nearly every kind of body with which a project does business. Some campaigns owe money back to the applicants themselves, and one owes money to a previous opponent. Check out About the No-Drama Congress Here
The total will not be known until campaigns file their next disclosures next month, but Obama and Romney owed nearly $ 8. 5 million incorporated ( all Romney's debt owed on a $ 3 million loan), according to their Oct. 17 pre-election disclosures. Of course, with at least $ 146 million in the bank, they likely have enough cash to protector it.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
