Here is the deal, Republican are outspending Democrats six to one
and have been for some time now and early voting has been going on for over a week now..An awful lot of people will have cast their vote before ever seeing a single Democratic Ad..Something to think about anyway..

2. The financing disparity is mostly "independent" groups, right?
My impression is that we are doing fine with the direct political contributions but that there is a lot more 527-type RW money this year.

Is that correct?

4. I think the point was no matter how much Democrats have, if they don't use it
early enough it might not matter.. What does Emily's List stand for again.. Early money is like yeast......It is indeed, and Democrats don't seem to understand that. It could be though they are planning a huge onslaught of advertising a few weeks before the election to run right up to election day and maybe that will do the trick..It won't work for those that have already cast their vote though..
