I have never heard of Crowdpac.

Is it time to look into GoFundMe and Crowdpac for political contributions?

I don’t think she has anything to worry about. She handily won last time. And 4 million dollars is not going to change that in a world where TV money just doesn’t make as much difference as it used to.

This is why republicans are starting to win. People are getting their news from somewhere besides TV, magazines and newspapers. The old world propaganda is over. The money does not matter as much any more. That is why Trump won while being outspent 4 to 1. People can find out all the information they want through other sources. A 30 ad is not persuasive any more.

This will just disappear like Jill Stein’s magic recount money.

A progressive and its money are soon parted.

However that being said these anonymous “donation” sources are becoming too big not to regulate, investigate and perhaps even confiscate.

I almost refuse to believe that there’s enough natural outrage to raise $4,000,000 inside of 36 hours from grass roots sources. Outrage? Yes. Outrage that will vote? Yes. Outrage that will give a dime? Mmmm, maybe, possibly. Outrage that will protest? Well, if you pay them.

The level of donations flowing to crowd funding sites for a used Ford and whoever runs in Maine is so questionable.

Just the headlines and news coverage of “Dr. Ford Has Raised $1,00,000” is worth $1,000,000 in media coverage while giving credence and possibility of being genuine.

However I will point back to Jill Stein, they gave their money, she spent a little... kept the rest. As the old joke here goes about DU “You’re just $10 away!’”

Except now big money is doing it in small amounts and quite anonymously.

So if a Republican challenged her in the primary, could THEY get some of this money?

largely SorozNazi type $$, for sure.

but where are the funds to replace, remove the D-commie-nazi types that voted NO on this fine qualified candidate?
people who support or go along with Obvious smear campaigns against another person......without a single piece of serious evidence ever being produced against him.....

such people do NOT belong in our US Senate! They demonstrate zero discernment.....and/or no integrity whatsoever. they should be removed ASAP!

“Is it time to look into GoFundMe and Crowdpac for political contributions? “

Absolutely! This is a b.s. way for people like Soros to funnel money to candidates and avoid campaign finance limitations.

The left doesn't care about the intent of any law, they're just interested in finding ways to get around the letter of those laws that restrict them from pushing the world in the direction they want to push it.

(But do not forget this woman’s committee vote gave us Obamacare. Too often she is a swing vote for the Democrats. Get rid of her as a “republican”)

Money is needed for campaigns but there is a limit

They’ll have lots of lobster dinners and high end xhampagne with this. Pay all the workers high dollar.

It only helps get so many votes.
