GOP cash woes threaten House bids
And I feel so sorry for them :sarcasm: Seriously these guys are rolling in money.. do you think that maybe they see the writing on the wall and are setting up excuses already??? Just a thought :rofl:

With the Republican Party on the cusp of major gains in the House next year — and with the dream of retaking the House appearing to be a real, if improbable, possibility — one major obstacle remains: tightfisted Republican incumbents.

The National Republican Congressional Committee, the key cog in helping to finance GOP campaigns, has banked less than a third as much money as its Democratic counterpart and is ending the year with barely enough money to fully finance a single House race — no less the dozens that will be in play come 2010.

3. Although donating to the DCCC is anathema to me
I just might have to do so because of this news.
