Ouch. Raised this quarter $658661 On Hand: $1209607.69 Maybe someone will make a run of it, but it’s going to be hard to get close with those numbers.
Emanuel’s job is to primarily raise money for the DCCC and he has no serious challenger, but I thought this was fun to contrast with everyone else: Raised the Period:259260.00 Raised this Cycle:410510.00 On Hand 1168677.73 And he spent $170,000
Total she broke the $100,000 mark. For the quarter: $63064.72, On Hand $43460.34 To give you an idea, Melissa Bean hadn’t started any serious fundraising by this part in the cycle in 2003. She had abotu $600 on hand after some disbursements. The key will be to leverage the early money into larger donors–once you […]
It’s not surprising that Democrats or independents might say that, but less than half of Republicans think the White House is cooperating fully according to an ABC Poll just out. The second key point is the salience: The leak investigation is seen as a meaningful issue: About three-quarters call it a serious matter, and just […]

Just how long until he goes up in flames? A Gidwitz family company manages a hellhole of an apartment complex in downtown Joliet. Gidwitz also partially owns the building. Congressman Jerry Weller, a fellow Republican, recently told the Daily Southtown that the property is an “unsafe, unhealthy, crime- and drug-ridden, outdated public housing project.” Weller […]
We see the first attack on him by Pat Roberts and when Tim Russert asks Mehlman if he’ll respect the decision by the Special Prosecutor, Ken seems to have to find a lot of words to not say yes. Remember, Just Say Yes Russert: You say you have tremendous confidence in Pat Fitzgerald. Mehlman: I […]
Everyone’s complaining about the Governor and stem cells so it seems that all those stories about power washing aren’t front and center. The point? If anyone is curious as to why the Governor all of a sudden cared about embryonic stem cell research after letting Hynes and Cross hang out to dry for the session, […]
But this one at Talking Points Memo is far more interesting Four former CIA agents submitted a statement on Capitol Hill in October of 2003. Clearly some in the Bush Administration do not understand the requirement to protect and shield national security assets. Based on published information we can only conclude that partisan politics by […]
