The Democratic Party’s biggest super PAC, recently retooled as an early pro-Hillary Clinton effort, will sit out the midterm elections this year.

A spokesman with the group, Priorities USA Action, confirmed to BuzzFeed on Wednesday night that it would not be involved in House or Senate campaigns.

“House Majority PAC and Majority PAC are doing everything right and making a real difference. We fully support their efforts,” said the spokesman, Peter Kauffmann, referring to the main groups supporting Democratic congressional candidates.

Priorities USA, which operates under loose campaign finance rules that allow it to raise and spend unlimited sums, put $65 million behind Barack Obama in 2012.
$65 Million for Barack Obama in 2012, and $0 for Democrats in 2014.

Key Democratic Group Will Sit Out Midterm Elections

Liberals are irate! LOL

Who can blame the rats for abandoning a sinking ship?

The ones you have to wonder about, are the ones that AREN'T bailing out.

Midterms, and congressional elections in general, are absolutely useless to gauge public sentiment, because districts are so gerrymandered as to make 90% of elections utterly meaningless. Senate and gubernatorial races are a slightly better indicator, but the only one that really matters is the one for president, and though I hate to burst your bubble, demographic evidence indicates that voters are running away from the GOP agenda.

Another Obamabot weighs in.

ACA is the anchor around liberals necks. That problem will continue to multiply and give liberals migraines for years to come.

Sorry to disappoint, repubtard, I am not an Obama voter. But by all means tell yourself whatever makes yourself feel better. Just have the whiskey ready in November 2016. Lots of it. That's all I'm saying.

LOL

Where do I start.

Eh, scratch that. I'll just keep it simple.

1) Democrats need all the help they can get to stave off a Senate GOP majority in 2014.

2) Your WonderBoy, Obama, will be as worthless as worthless gets if the GOP takes the Senate.

If that's not simple enough for you to understand, then perhaps politics is not the hobby for you.
