Title: The DNC is broke
Post by: taxed on November 23, 2015, 06:35:43 PM
Apologies if this has been posted today, but I didn't see it.  So, thought this was hilarious:

http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/11/22/democratic-national-committee-broke/

QuoteThe Democratic National Committee (DNC) is financially insolvent heading into the 2016 election year, Breitbart News has learned.

Federal Election Commission records reveal that the DNC is millions of dollars underwater and running up a deficit each month, lagging far behind its financially savvy counterpart, the Republican National Committee.

Just last month, the DNC turned a nearly million-dollar debt, marking the fourth month in a row that the DNC spent more money than it took in. In fact, the committee chaired by Debbie Wasserman Schulz took a loss in seven of the last ten months.

The DNC raised $4,456,789 in the month of October, according to its most recent filing. But the committee spent $5,254,928, for a net loss of $798,139.

That's not quite as bad as September, when the party took in $4,296,011 but spent $5,504,823 for a net loss of more than $1.2 million.

So, where does that leave the embattled organization?

The DNC has only $4,703,185 in cash on hand against $6,921,661 in debts.

Cruz alone has far more money on hand than the entire Marxist party combined.

She'll probably continue to have shortfalls until after Clinton formally gets the nomination. Would-be donors are still sidelined, presumably holding their noses.

I know why Soros gave up on the Dims.
He too knows there's no return on investment, the party is dead and soon to be out of power for decades and knows quite well, he'll be long dead before they even begin to recover. :lol:

The DNC wandering hat in hand from hobo-camp to hobo-camp is hilarious.  That's how Dems manage things.  Kudo's to Little Morphin' Debbie.

I'm too lazy to investigate, but I imagine several Dem superPACS are suffering the same fate.  Don't lease a modest store-front in a stripmall as an HQ...  Lease an 'attractive' building-space with a bloated overhead.

The DNC has been bankrupt for a very long time. Morally, bankrupt that is. It was only a matter of time before the financial bankruptcy came along.

It's just the DNC, not the candidates Hillary has ~$32M on hand to Cruz's $13M - and that doesn't include the superpacs, you count those and Jeb is #1 with hillary behind him.

A lack of DNC money will hurt the democratic candidates for lesser offices more than it will affect the presidential race, especially the lesser known ones, since they rely on DNC money more.

Nope, you didn't account for Cruz superpac, and Hitler's money is anyone's best guess, considering she's blowing through it faster than it's coming in, but also considering she probably has access to personal billions around the globe.

But all is a moot point when one considers the message and the messenger.
No one wants what the Dims are peddling, like the Devil offering immortality, as long as you live as a slave. How appealing is that?
Cruz on the other hand, offers what hasn't been offered since Reagan.
So who's money do you suppose will go the furthest?

WHAT is she spending money on...? Really!  The media is already in her pants-suit, fawning over her and shutting out the rest, she doesn't need to spend any money on campaigning (save it for the legal defense, Ie. Bengazi - and Bill's sexploite defense).  What a way to go BROKE, financially tied up defending yourself & your wayward spouse, AND try a Presidental run...?  (dang, that's right, they get the MSM discount rates...).


Soros...?   Maybe he's paying the airfare for all these immigrants to the mexican border?  Just where are these flat-broke people scraping up the money for airfare to get to mexico?  Then you got the ferrying fees crossing the Rio Grande, mexican bribe-a-guard fees & pay-off-a-politician...  Illegal immigration ain't for broke people!  Maybe the DNC has out-sourced importing voters, therefore, they are broke?    :lol:

I had, but it looks like my info was a bit old.  Cruz has eeked out ahead of Hillary by a couple million.  Jeb still #1

I have no idea, I don't think I've seen a single Hillary ad anywhere.  Like maybe a couple twitter ads or something, but nothing expensive.

I fear you're living in a conservative news bubble that makes you see the outcome you want.  I'm pretty convinced the election overall is going to be close.  The national clinton/cruz matchup polls have mostly been within margin of error either way.  It's going to be a hard fought election.

My only point in bringing up the polls is pointing out it'll be close and money will matter in the end.

Exactly my point.  I can't think of a single Democratic ad, over than my inbox SPAM some volunteer put together.

I've been hearing Cruz ads - here in Virginia, but they're paid for by some pac, not Ted Cruz...  a 2nd ammendment group.

Think back to 2008. She mismanaged her campaign and wasted too much money. History is the best indicator of the future. Does anyone think Hillary is any brighter in 2015 than she was in 2008? History repeats itself. The big question is when will she bring Bubba out to try and save her?

The ACORN sprouted and died.
OFA was sanitized from Obama Fcks America to Obama for Anarchism to Organizing for America.  They wasted so much money reprinting protest signs, they got pissed off & decided to burn them... in the streets.  "What the hell, it doesn't matter!" was shortened to "Black Lies Matter".

There ya go, and before that they were bused in to riot in Baltimore, prior to that, organizing OWS Idiot White Kids too stupid to see they were pawns for communists.
Lets see, what will they morph into after the Nation gets sick of black lies no longer matter?

Whats leftust, considering they organized illegal workers in the early 70s into a Union, they've just about covered possible victim class.

Organizing for Action now.  It's a PAC that focuses on social issues.
