Senate Dems Outraise GOP – Again
In July, the DSCC raised almost $1 million more than the NRSC

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) brought in $4.2 million for the month of July, again outraising its GOP counterpart. The DSCC has raised $77.2 million for the 2006 campaign cycle and has $35.1 million in the bank. The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) raised just $3.3 million in July, bringing its total for the 2006 cycle to just $65.9 million. It has $20.6 million in the bank.

“Democrats are winning the fundraising race because Americans understand that we have the ideas to move the country in a new direction,” DSCC Chairman Chuck Schumer said. “People who are sick of the status quo and want change are looking to the Democrats.”

The DSCC’s fundraising prowess has laid a solid financial foundation for Democratic Senate candidates, helping to ensure that they will have the resources necessary to win in November. “We’ve run the DSCC like a business and marshaled our resources to ensure that we are able get our message out to the voters,” Schumer said.

Democrats have been pushing the “New Direction” agenda all summer, focusing on six central goals aimed at helping average people: Strengthening national security, improving jobs and wages, energy independence and lower gas prices, affordable health care and life-saving science, retirement security and college access for all.

3. The outraising probably did outrage
So you're both right.

2. Seems that most people, the reasonable ones anyway, have had it...
They realize this country is on the fast track to the crapper, and the Repugs have enabled these demons every step of the way.
