The Supreme Court ruling may have gone President Obama's way, but Mitt Romney is doing his best to capitalize.
Campaign spokeswoman Andrea Saul posted on Twitter today that Romney has raised $4.6 million through the Internet in the 24 hours since the high court announced its decision to uphold Obama's health care law. She said he received more than 47,000 donations.
Romney said Thursday that defeating Obama in November would be the way to repeal the law.
The president's campaign team and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee are also trying to raise money off the court's ruling by highlighting the importance of the election.
"Let's win the damn election," Obama campaign manager Jim Messina says in an e-mail pitch that hit inboxes last night. Team Obama is asking for a donation of $3 or more to help defeat Romney.
