Slower quarter, but I think this is an example of where I predicted a bit slower of a quarter. Still good money across the board, but will need to improve it for next cycle. Given he’s probably already signed Rahm’s fundraising committment, John has a lot of phone calling in his future.

Spending is a little high, but that was based on an expected higher take. Nothing too out of line.

Biggest problem for John right now is that Weller figured out he’s got a real challenger and is gearing up for a fight.

By Golly, I think EMILY’S List is supporting her!

Lot’s of PAC money including banking–read Bankruptcy Bill. Sigh…

Otherwise some labor (which may/may not still be there next report) and general interest PACs.

And good on her–she returned the WalMart PAC donation.

A good showing and hers is all for the general election.

Someone’s nervous about John 😉

The problem with El Geraldo’s reports is that there are so many fun PACs to track down you are always worried about which ones you are missing a juicy angle. Let’s start with what does a Congressman from Illinois have to do with the Viejas Tribal Government based in California?

It’s good to be a political consultant in this race. If Gidwitz wasn’t paying enough people, the 8th District candidates would be enough to give everyone a good cycle.

Loser of this report is Bartels who is going to have to start dipping into her own cash to compete. Churchill has name recognition already–as does Salvi and McSweeney, so it’s slightly different game.

Given he has no opposition for the primary that I know of David doesn’t have to show a ton, but if he doesn’t show a good amount by the time of the primary, he won’t get much help from others out there.

Shocked, shocked I tell you that someone who was handed a Congressional seat is to lazy to raise any serious money. Much of it is labor PAC money and then the nugget of a Holcim Manager dropping him some cash. Remember that the next time you hear about Holcim’s plant in Missouri hurting all of the Midwest’s air quality.
