Reply #87: Different consultants same "horse farms"

[John_H]

The point is that Democrats are hostage to consultants who sap a huge share of donations.

But the rethugs do the same thing, right? Sure, but not nearly as pervasively and usually keep someone really, really good out of the private sector. They spend their money hiring experienced professionals as staff. Dems have a consultant for everything, getting half the results at twice the pay, while staffing their press and political operations with clever theirteen-year-olds.
