The DNC Had Another Awful Fundraising Month
Washington Free Beacon ^ | September 21, 2017 | Brent Scher

Posted on 09/21/2017 7:00:48 PM PDT by Zakeet

The Democratic National Committee's already dire financial standing worsened during the month of August, according to its Wednesday night filing to the FEC.

The DNC raised just $4.4 million last month, the second lowest August fundraising figure for the party in the past decade. The party had less cash on hand at the end of the month than it did at the beginning, as its spending outpaced its fundraising by $44,575.

And it gets worse. The DNC's debt substantially increased ...

Party officials predicted in August that DNC fundraising figures would start to turn around, explaining that its fundraising staff was ten times bigger than it had been at the beginning of the year.

Obama’s OFA & of course Hillary’s What Happened tour are probably soaking up what money is available. There’s only so much money to go around.

I’m going to temper my desire to play Taps for the Democrat Party because I remember all too many stories saying the GOP was kaput and would never win another national election.

“I think Americans are waking up to that fact.”

A friend once likened politics to a huge blanket covering all of the populace. Each person under the blanket moves in his Brownian fashion in whatever direction his agenda takes him, and carries with him a bit of the blanket. Occasionally, due to randomness, the blanket moves in one direction as opposed to the others. Pundits instantly seize on this by saying, “Look, the public is doing X.” When, in reality, its just randomness.

The populous splits into roughly three categories; Left, at 40%, Right, at 40% and the Center at 20%. All elections are an attempt to influence the vote of the 51% of that 20% in Center. These are people who, if asked on the street, can’t name a single Supreme Court justice. They can’t name the Vice President. The don’t know the difference between the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence. They mostly vote for a candidate because he has nice hair or he reminds them of somebody they liked. I don’t think these people can “wake.”

“BO’B has even admitted to the fact he has no knowledge in balancing a checkbook.”…..just like his fellow Socialist, FDR. FDR’s mother kept the family checkbook until her death at 96, because she did not trust him with their money. The nation should have listened to her.

The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. Two ‘men’ educated in one of the most ‘prestige’ universities of our land. That certainly says so much about our education system, what it was then and what it still is today. America’s voters, they’ve been given the same education. This nation is infested with such ignorance.

The that many shows how deranged much of the country is.

Maybe there should be a daisy chain of Democrats each analyzing the other

So the party had a staff ten times bigger, and set records for NOT raising money. Does the DNC understand the definition of productivity? Efficiency? Effectiveness? How about bankruptcy?

The only conceivable remaining justification for the Republican Part, is to “oppose” the Democratic Party. Unless you’re John McCain, of course.

The Republican hierarchy can’t afford to let the Democratic Party die. They’re two heads on the same monster.

I like that analysis. Hadn’t heard it before.

How about getting George Soros one of those Hawaiian birth certificates?
