Worst RNC cash flow in a decade
By Aaron Blake - 01/06/10 06:00 AM ET

A 2009 spending spree has left the Republican National Committee (RNC) with its worst election-year cash flow this decade.

The largest GOP party committee has $8.7 million in the bank heading into an election year with 37 governors’ races, a dozen major Senate contests, dozens more in the House and an all-important redistricting cycle on the horizon.

Said one RNC official: “It is very troubling, and the thing is, most people don’t understand this. But it is really troubling.”

The RNC had $22.8 million in cash and no debt when Michael Steele was elected chairman at the end of January, but has since seen its cash on hand drop to less than $9 million at the end of November.

2. The one reason the teabaggers have so much power.
Think NY23 and Florida was enough, not on you nelly (whoever nelly is).

4. Geez, I have more than that in my checking account!

Ok, I don't have $8.7 million in my checking account...

...but that amount of money is a pittance for a national political organization!

That's really crazy!

...and hilarious!

...and exciting!

6. How much did they foolishly spend on NY23? How much
have they spent trying to damage Charlie Crist? I don't think it's lack of funds as much as it is foolish spending! But whatever it is, I say YEAH!!!!!

7. Not easily IMHO.
I have a feeling Mikey knows where a lot of the bodies are buried and how deep. I'll bet he's really got them by the balls.

8. Conservatism fails again.
By the end of 2010 the GOP will be in debt.

9. I really hope they keep him around.
If they fire him they might get someone competent to replace him.

10. Don't any of those 'fiscally responsible' GOOPers know how to manage a budget?
Or raise funds from their fat-cat benefactors? They act like this problem just appeared out of nowhere, but they should have seen it coming from miles away.

12. Exactly: Republicans have no idea how to manage money, except by corrupt means.
They've all gotten so grab-happy since bush took over and allowed his buddies to rob the country blind. Stealing is all they know.

11. Limbaugh could always throw in a few hundred million.



Without even breaking a sweat. And OxyRush is the de facto
leader of the GOP. Steele is just a figurehead.
