As incredible as it sounds, the beleaguered Republican Party is out fundraising the Democrats.

According to the Politico, the GOP out fund raised the DNC $5.1 million to $3.3 million in February.

Link to rest.

I'm not surprised by this at all. Look at what's been going on? How could this surprise anyone?

It was a good month for them but in the last year they're behind about $150 million dollars. It will take a lot of months to make up that sized hole.

I feel no need to contribute at this time, when the Dems need it, I'll be there.

Why do they need to raise money and who are the freaking idiots donating? It's like why does McDonald's or Coca-Cola need to advertise? The two parties have insured that there will be no substantive competition. If one does something the people don't like the other gets the money....when it's really just an ILLUSION of choice. Both parties are controlled by the same elite people who think that by creating this artificial division, the people's need to oppose whatever they do is satisfied.

Why talk using their language? Why refer to the Democrats and Republicans like they're not connected at the hip? And most importantly why contribute to your demise by donating your hard-earned money to them?
