New interim U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker of Tupelo is such a good fundraiser, he’s collected more money than he can use as he campaigns to succeed Trent Lott in the U.S. Capitol.
Republican Wicker reports raising more than $3 million in the first three months of 2008 in his race against Democrat former Gov. Ronnie Musgrove.

Musgrove’s campaign manager terms it “illegal.” The Federal Elections Commission sees it as “overage” collected for an election that won’t happen.
