A Fund Falls Short in Last-Ditch Bid to Help Democrats

Big bucks? Average political donations from Republicans are larger than average policical donations from Democrats. Republicans have less contributors but more money. The majority of Democrats are middle and lower class workers.

Union Bosses? Well, there are a lot of unions that support Democrats. That's because unions are made up of working class people, the very people Democrats try to help in this ever more difficult and expensive world.

Money Launderers? How so?

Ambitious hacks? I'd argue that most Republicans are more ambitious than the typical Democrat. Republicans say you have to pay to play and those without the position or the power get left behind. Democrats want to even the playing field to something more equitable.

Integrity? Recent scandal certainly has hit the Republican party.
