Laughable Expense

MoveOn.org is claiming ownership of the Democratic Party, at least according to Eli Pariser.

"In the last year, grass-roots contributors like us gave more than $300 million to the Kerry campaign and the DNC, and proved that the party doesn’t need corporate cash to be competitive,” the message continued. “Now it’s our party: we bought it, we own it, and we’re going to take it back."

I’d say they paid too much.

In the article which the above is gleaned from, there is also this comment, uttered by DNC spokesman Jano Cabrera.

"Call me crazy, but I think the fact that for the first time in party history we outraised the Republicans, and did so primarily through grass-roots fund raising is something to be proud of,” Cabrera said."

Whoo, hoo.  My daddy makes more money than your daddy.  Move on, dunderheads.

    OK, let ‘em keep it.

    Yes, they raised that much more money..  But given the results of the last election, where the Democrats outspent the Republicans...(If you include the 527’s) by an order of nine to one… and still lost… I’m not so sure I’m convinced they’re a threat.
