"The Stupid Party would have had tons of money if they would have simply enacted Trump’s agenda."

Exactly.

The weasel Eric Cantor outspent Dave Brat by something like 20 to 1. He still lost.
The people are finally waking up and voting out the weasels.

Maybe they should start doing things that would convince the President to come campaign for them.

“The list goes on: Rep. Dana Rohrabacher of California, under scrutiny over his unseemly ties to Russia,”

Now this is just nonsense. That is part of Dana’s job with the House committee that he sits on.

Just wait and see the defections if the Republicans are stupid enough to raise the taxes of millions of Americans in order to pay for a huge tax cut for corporations.

Collins isn’t up until 2020.

But I’m all in favor of getting rid of her.

Fake news. The party hurting for money is the Rat Party!

DNC enters 2018 in cash panic (donors take a knee)
Politico ^ | 10/22/17 | GABRIEL DEBENEDETTI, EDWARD-ISAAC DOVERE
Posted on 10/22/2017, 4:48:58 PM by Libloather

LAS VEGAS — The Democratic National Committee is reeling, facing a turnaround that’s proving a much bigger lift than anyone expected as it struggles to raise enough money to cover its basic promises.

Many donors are refusing to write checks. And on-the-ground operatives worry they won’t have the resources to build the infrastructure they need to compete effectively in next year’s midterms and in the run-up to 2020.

Here in the halls of Bally’s hotel and casino for the DNC’s fall meeting through the weekend, state committee chairs and operatives echoed a now-common concern among donors and strategists: The DNC’s recovery is still a ways away, and that could have serious repercussions for the party in the coming years.

Maybe they need to embrace those deplorables.

The National Journal is writing for the Beltway. Normal Americans aren’t buying the “Democrat wave” crap.

The reality is the rat party is hurting for funds.

DNC creates new restrictions for corporate donations (as donors dry up)

The Hill via MSN ^ | 10/21/17 | John Bowden
Posted on 10/22/2017, 4:57:38 PM by Libloather

The Democratic National Committee (DNC) on Saturday passed a resolution banning donations from corporate contributors whose areas of interest come into conflict with the DNC’s stated values.

The resolution, which was introduced by California member Christine Pelosi, passed unanimously. Pelosi is the daughter of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) Pelosi has introduced similar resolutions before that were shot down over concerns over which industries the measures would target.

The move was celebrated on Twitter by progressive members of the Democratic Party who have been pushing to reduce corporate influence in the party.

Two years of the GOPE Congress doing nothing and you might not get a wave but you are going to get some unexpected loses. The base has no reason to vote in 18 for the congress as constituted.

Saw the “Money Woes Grow” headline and thought they were referring to the massively out-of-balance budget that the GOPe is pushing!! That should also be a “vote losing” concern for the GOP.

maybe they want to lose..

Being in power is hard.. people expect you to do something..

I don’t think the republicans currently in the office really want to work. They just want the perks.

Ossoff outraised Handel more than 5 to 1 in the race for the GA seat vacated by Tom Price. The DNC isn’t getting funding. But House Democrats certainly are. https://ballotpedia.org/Georgia’s_6th_Congressional_District_special_election,_2017#tab=Spending
