“Well, ‘tis true. JD was one of the biggest spenders in Congress, and one of the reasons why the GOP took a shellacking in 2006.

No????”

Are you saying that he was part of the general GOP spending malaise or that he specifically was a big spender (earmarks and pork)?

JD was big on earmarks, and second largest recipient of Abramoff favors and money. Don't know about pork.

And just for those who are thinking about sending money to him, consider the fact that his PAC raised just over $500,000 between 2001 and 2005. His wife got over $100,000 of it, and administration costs were 46%.

Just sayin', ya know? And posting these facts, does not make me a McCainiac!
