Today’s Good News for Romney: Romney is reaping the benefits of his first knockout debate performance: Campaign spokeswoman Andrea Saul says that in the first two weeks of October, Romney raised more than $27 million in online donations, more than in any previous month.

Since then, Romney’s winning performance has encouraged small donors to pony up—and that influx of cash could go a long way in the final weeks before the election.
