Could this be an exaggeration to increase fund raising?
I think to a certain extent, but I also think the Dem's know that they're in trouble come Nov.
The piss poor economy has its upside in this case.
I think everything is propaganda from the DNC. Looking at the numbers, they do bear out what they are saying...but if they didn't want this story out there...they would simply lie.
So you have to ask yourself: WHY are they admitting it?
1) To increase fundraising.
2) To show the "evil" rich right.
3) To set up an excuse...
4) To give an illusion...so that when they do start getting the money in...they can spin it to how people trust the president's leadership.
