Republicans Not Doing Well in Fund-Raising

In a story published this week in the Denver Post there is bad news for Republicans. They are not doing well in fund-raising. In the Senate races, Republicans had $25 million in the bank in July, compared with $42 million for the Democrats. Republicans have canceled about a quarter of their ad buys they had already booked for Colorado's Senate race.

Last month Barack Obama raised $51 million, compared with John McCain's $27 million.

I've heard conflicting reports myself. Some say, things are fine; others report what you've got here. I'd say it's probably buyers remorse. Most conservatives really don't like McCain. They'll vote for him reluctantly but support him monetarily is another issue altogether.
