By the way, the DNC is broke
Hotair ^ | 10/01/2013 | Guy Benson

This story is just perfect — particularly in light of the party’s endemic debt denialism, and the personal financial straits of its chairwoman:

There’s another budget crisis in Washington, and it’s unfolding inside the Democratic party. The Democratic National Committee remains so deeply in the hole from spending in the last election that it is struggling to pay its own vendors.It is a highly unusual state of affairs for a national party — especially one that can deploy the President as its fundraiser-in-chief – and it speaks to the quiet but serious organizational problems the party has yet to address since the last election, obscured in part by the much messier spectacle of GOP infighting. The Democrats’ numbers speak for themselves: Through August, 10 months after helping President Obama secure a second term, the DNC owed its various creditors a total of $18.1 million, compared to the $12.5 million cash cushion the Republican National Committee is holding.

The Democrats: Recklessly spending themselves to political victory…and into fiscal oblivion. Forward!

Those poor Democrats.

Can’t they appeal to the federal government for emergency assistance?

What a shame!

Someone please explain to me how the DNC can be broke when all Obama does is fundraise? Check his schedule - it’s loaded with fundraisers. Where are the funds he’s raising going if not the DNC?

To Obama's off shore private account for his personal use?

He has to pay for all of the future partying at Man's Country when he leaves office. (If he leaves.)

Is this a spending problem, a revenue problem, or a mental problem?

Yes.
