Is the Republican tactic to get the Dems to spend all their money

[rzemanfl]

fighting each other in the primaries so they can swiftboat the hell out of whoever gets the nomination? The rich have the money, we have lots of people who can contribute the cost of a nice dinner, by missing out on a nice dinner, they aren't going to miss any meals.

1. I don't see how they have any control over the Dem races

3. Didn't you notice that magic underwear Romney dropped out

"for the sake of party unity." As the presumptive nominee McCain can coast the rest of the way while we argue about who raised the most money in the last 15 minutes.

2. I think we're all going to give what we can afford.

I'll give ten bucks this month, next month, and every month until November.

I think there's a lot of people like me this time.

4. Repukes can hope Dem coffers are run down. But it will not make a difference. The

Democratic base will come through with $$$$ during the GE. They are highly motivated.

5. Money will not be an issue in the general.

McCain has never been able to manage campaign finances. And he's not a money-making machine like either Clinton or Obama.
