How Many Politicians Can The Koch Brothers Buy With A Billion Dollars?

[GoLeft TV]

Republicans understand the fundamentals of electoral politics in a way that should absolutely terrify the Democratic Party. It goes like this: You don’t have to hold the White House, or even Congress, in order to get everything you want.

For years now, billionaire donors like the Koch brothers have known that the best way to influence politics was to do it at the local level and build your way up. When they want to build a fracking well in a small Colorado town, they simply buy the local government. It's cheap, it's easy, and it's effective.
