Huh? People are Dean are still only allowed to donate up to $2000 to Dean. Oh, and federal matahcing funds only apply to up to the first $250 of donations which means only about 30% more money for Clark.
The limit for personal hard money contributions to candidates is $2000 whether you accept matching funds or not.
This breaks down the donors by amount given. Notice that while Bush has more $2000 donors than anyone else. He also has more $200 donors than anyone else.
Dean has "earned" very few delegates via voting. In fact Clark and Edwards have kicked the hell out of him in this regard. But he has so many people in the party who have endorsed him that he is still in the running.
Yet all his money comes from people who, I guess don't vote.

Does that make him more grassroots?

The funniest thing about Dean is his fund raising is grassroots, but his delegates are all party hacks.
Talk about your conundrums.
