Connally ran for president in 1980. He raised and spent $11 million and won one delegate. Rudy Giuliani did far worse in 2008, where he raised well over $50 million (and spent himself close to bankruptcy).
They're both eclipsed by Mayor McBig Gulp, who has spent half a billion dollars to win American Samoa.
Bloomberg ran ads everywhere he possibly could, to no avail.
Which gives me some hope for the life of American democracy, where an oligarch still can't buy a national election.

Doomberg's three big mistakes.
1). Not getting in the race earlier
2). Believing his policies and ideology would play well anywhere outside of the sewer that is NYC.
3). Thinking money alone would get him elected.
You and me both, lady. On this we can agree.
