Many wealthy Democratic patrons, who in the past have played major roles financing outside groups to help elect the party's candidates, are sitting out these crucial midterm elections.
Democratic donors like George Soros and fellow billionaire Peter Lewis, who each gave more than $20 million to Democratic-oriented groups in the 2004 election, appear to be holding back.

Yep, I saw this article on Drudge this morning. Very good news indeed.
And the excuses the Sorros rep gave about his spending money on specific issues sounded like a lame excuse. They just don't want to throw good money after a bad risk.
This is just proof that the left is ion the pocket, or viceversa, of big biz.
Any smart businessman knows you don't throw money at a bad investment, no matter the cause.
There is no return on a bad investment.
