Fundraising Follies

Well, if you like to call elections by the way the money flows -

Romney bests Obama in May fundraising, raising nearly $77 million | The Ticket - Yahoo! News

Meh, I've got better things to spend my money on - like paying bills.

And I'm sure the UAW will dump another 2 million or so of our dues money into BO's chest like they did last go round - WITHOUT allowing thier membership to have a vote or say on it, I might add.

There is a very large oil company in this country that has a PAC. They donate money to the person they think will do the best job for the country. If you are a member of the PAC you have no say as to who the money goes to. Oddly enough it always seems to go to Republicans.

You don't have to join the PAC, but everyone knows that your career is going nowhere unless you do.
