Nominate real conservatives and watch the money pour in. Not Krispy Kreme, Milt or some Rove-picked lukewarm CINO, no, real conservatives!

Use to believe that money did not matter but after the last few election cycles, I’ve come to believe that yes, the electorate is “stupid”! It matters not what their platform is, it matters not whether they are truthful, it only matters if they lie their ass off about what they will do for the folks!

I really think that it has become a matter of principle instead of money buys the votes but what do I know! I don’t have enough money to purchase those votes...

All the money in the world will not persuade someone whose life is ruined by ObamaCare to vote Democrat.

I have been somewhat successful at political fundraising a few times (Polk County GOP and Fred Thompson campaign) and I’d be willing to show others my methods.

Well, I am not doubting your expertise but am questioning the ability of folks to understand that they are being taken over by the left and actually vote against that. They tend to lie much better than you do...

With enough money and the disaster of Obamacare, NSA, Benghazi and the rest, Hillary could be stopped and the senate re-taken.

I rally think we are getting past the point where money buys influence in an presidential election cycle. The county is split so evenly that only a few voters in a few big states decide the outcome. The rest is pretty useless.

The trick is getting those few voters.

A lot of this money comes from Soros, who made it collapsing places like Malaysia.

The electorate is the dumbest collection of sheep you could ever be embarrassed to be stuck with. We need to get our message OUT!!!!!

The government has been for sale for a hundred years.

Wow, enough money! Don’t you think that if the American people were only half awake that they might just throw these folks out of office! Do you really think that might happen?

We now have half of the country that thinks that they should receive benefits just for being born for goodness sakes! How are you going to overcome that? Just how do you place these folks into the work force in the future?

We have reached a precipitous situation, not Democrat vs Republican but takers vs the producers. It has become much more volatile that most think.

Sorry, but don’t really see any way out of this mess...

“Education Minnesota teachers union — poured $4.8 million into ­election efforts, nearly all of it benefiting Democrats.”

I’m sure it was all for the children too.

The most important source of funding is the MSM.

Letterman, the Today Show, CBS Evening News, 60 Minutes, the Associated Press, PBS, on and on.

The value of their “contribution” to the Democrat Party is in the billions of dollars, and probably more than $10 billion across a 4 year election cycle.

95% of the work has already been done by the MSM before the unions and wealthy Democrats even show up.

You can’t teach dumb asses about Government, Freedoms, or anything else you know... Their ideas are built into their psyche - from grade school on... It’s one of those leftist things - taught at a very early age and enhanced in college (well almost all leftist universities)...

Sorry, not a messaging problem, but a stupid problem! We generally have about half of the population either stupid or uninformed so take you pick, how are you going to help these folks understand that they are destroying their lives voting for Democrats!

You forgot to count the black Labrador.

I'll bet she votes, several times per election, actually.

“Woof” if you support Obama for a third term!

They have to hit rock bottom, obviously. Once they hit the point of actually being uncomfortable in their poverty, things have to change for them.
