the top ten DNC donors outspent the top ten RNC donors by nearly 2 to 1 since 1989

...

The political left always accuses the Republican Party of being the “party of rich guys.”

It’s a lie.

...

C) Committed Democrat donors have outspent committed Republican donors by nearly $486 million since 1989

D) Overall, the top ten DNC donors outspent the top ten RNC donors by nearly 2 to 1 since 1989.

E) The largest committed DNC donor group has outspent the largest committed RNC donor group by 67% since 1989

...

The arguments by Democrats that the RNC is trying “buy or rig elections” are utterly false. The Republican Party is the party of the middle class.

What the party of the KKK, Jim Crow, Al Capone, Woodrow Wilson, Margaret Sanger, Robert Byrd, and Barack Obama really fear is legitimate competition.

It can get expensive convincing decent, normal, God-fearing people that they should vote for and elect a communist DemocRAT.

Crony capitalists to provide the dough.
Entitlement army to provide the votes.

It’s a strong team.

Their strategy even re-elected a POTUS with $4 gas, 8% unemployment (17% actual), surging food prices, and trillion dollar deficits to infinity.

Another statistic you will NEVER see in the MSM is that the richest members of the House and Senate are overwhelmingly Democrats - think John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Hillary (Yes, she’s rich), Nancy Pelosi, Rockefeller (WVa), Feinstein, Pelosi, Reid (who never held a private sector job, but he’s rich - hmmm), yada, yada, yada.

It’s a lie.

The liberal MSM carries that lie for democrats. Guess that makes them liars too...

Don’t forget the media which you can’t put a price on.

And, that may explain, in part, why conservatives are losing the war.

For whatever reason, conservatives are loathe to spend money to defeat LIEberals.

LIEberals, however, are prepared to do whatever they have to, be it legal (rarely) or illegal (mostly), to WIN!

It is about WINNING, conservatives!

Elections have consequences, and we’d best get our stuff together and kick some LIEberal and RINO ass in November, or we will lose America.

And, if we lose America, the World loses!

C’mon conservatives, between now and November 4, 2014, let us go the extra mile and let us give the extra dollar or two so that WE WIN THE ELECTION!

LETS KEEP THE HOUSE AND TURN THE SENATE!

Koch Bros come in 59th.

14 of the top 16 are demonrats.

I still have Al Franken telling me we need to “get money out of politics”.
