DEAN UNDER FIRE FROM PARTY DEMS; NEARLY ALL CASH SPENT Mon Jan 30 2006 10:52:31 ET

Democratic leaders on Capitol Hill are privately bristling over Howard Dean’s management of the Democratic National Committee and have made those sentiments clear after new fundraising numbers showed he has spent nearly all the committee’s cash and has little left to support their efforts to gain seats this cycle, ROLL CALL reports.

Congressional leaders were furious last week when they learned the DNC has just $5.5 million in the bank, compared to the Republican National Committee’s $34 million.

Senate and House Minority Leaders Harry Reid (Nev.) and Nancy Pelosi (Calif.), along with the Senate and House campaign committee chairmen Charles Schumer (N.Y.) and Rahm Emanuel (Ill.), have made their concerns -- directly or indirectly -- known to Dean, claims the paper.

Emanuel was particularly upset last week upon seeing the latest DNC numbers.

“A lot of people are scratching their heads as to what’s going on,” said one senior Democratic aide.

Another Democratic source familiar with the party fundraising apparatus said there is “obvious displeasure” among the leaders.

Dean's probably not doing the managing. Tobias is.

Now, how in the world is the average voter to trust Dem leaders to handle national, state or local budgets when the Dem Party can't even keep their own coffers in order? This kind of news is REALLY bad for the Dem Party. REALLY bad!!! Because it's not that the Dem Party can't raise money. They can raise it. But then what happens? It's like a mystery. Dean has no money in the bank for elections, and Kerry had $11 million in the bank AFTER the election. What is wrong with Dem Party leaders' brains when it comes to money???

Maybe the money went to pay for Kerry's ski trips. :)

Yep, I think you are correct...

Well, it probably costs a lot to feed the NYT, WP, Hollyweird, and other key DNC mouthpieces... (Oil for Food = DNC Cash for Propaganda)

I bet the dems are really happy they have Dean the head of their fundraising.... Michael Moron and Hollyweird will bail them out.

The Dems are the UN's useful idiot....

I have always said that Dean was the best thing to happen to the GOP in the last 2 years.

I used to refer to Terry McAuliffe as the GOP's MVP. But Screamin' Howie makes McAuliffe look composed and professional.

Simple reason, Hilary has sucked out all the money. Dean was given the job because it did not matter. Hitlary does not care about the party, she only cares about herself.

If she does not get the top job then in her opinion, the democrat party does not deserve to survive.

Well the usual cast of Muck Diving characters over in the sewer known as the Dimorat party are all a dither.

Mad, because Senor Big Mouth ain't got no money for them to waste on the coming campaigns.

Another words the Maniacs are mad at the Deaniac.
