Dr. Dean will be on Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace this weekend.

A lot of wishful thinking going on at DNC these days...

Wasn’t Dr. Dean a fundraising wunderkind???
He’s fired!

RNC’s take this year is a drop in the bucket compared to what they would receive if they stopped running RINOs.

They sure as sherlock didn’t get any money from me and haven’t since they screwed up running the Congress last time.

By contrast the Republican Congressional and Senate committees (the NRCC and NRSC) are bankrupt relative to the flush Democrat Congressional and Senate committees (the DCCC and DSCC) meaning while we might get our RINO into the White House, there’s no way in hell we’re going to pick up seats in Congress.

It is a simple rule that you always get more of whatever you reward. NEVER give money to the RNC -- they will just give it to RINO candidates who betray your Conservative principles. ALWAYS give money directly to individual Conservative candidates who share your core values.

A nice piece of good news for a change.

“It’s a little nuts that we are spending so much money fighting each other instead of Republicans,” the official continued. “We should be doing things that start defining McCain our way instead of his way. And if we had more money we could do more.”


Sorry, but that is how it will be until an official Dem nominee is decided. The way things are looking, that will not happen until the convention in August. Enjoy the ride!

...DNC official explained, the eventual Democratic nominee could burn through much of his or her primary election cash before the convention and donors might be less responsive to pleas for more money once the nomination battle is settled — leaving the campaign cash-strapped for a prolonged period before the convention, after which the separate general election funds can be tapped.

opensecrets.org says Hitlery has 8,128 contributors who have given the max $4,600 (2,300 for the primary election and 2,300 for the general election.) That's $18,694,400 that can't be spent until she gets the nomination. Yet she has $31,712,197 on hand and $15,321,562 in debt. Something doesn't add up.

“I don’t know if the Obama campaign will have so much money by the time that he wins, if he wins,” the DNC official said. “Meantime, voter file, opposition research, voter outreach — we should be doing all the things that the Republicans are doing.”

The sluggish fundraising might also inhibit so-called “hybrid advertising,” which numbered in the tens of millions in 2004. Hybrid advertising is based on a loophole in FEC regulations, discovered and first exploited by the Bush campaign four years ago, in which the party and campaign can split advertising budgets.
