Lunsford's Fund Raising Debacle
« Global Warming Hoax Continues Crumbling | Main | More Bad News For Global Warming Enthusiasts »Yesterday, I talked about the importance of fund raising in a campaign. It is not just about the money. It is about organization. Its about the candidates ability to show he not only has support but can work hard to put together a winning team.
Lunsford raised a whopping $600,000 last quarter. Jennifer Duff from Cook Political Report called the paltry financial report "not impressive". No, the tally was not impressive at all. Some of the congressional candidates raised almost as much money as he did.
Personally, I don't think Lunsford has the desire to do the things necessary to win an election. I don't think he ever has been. I think running for office is just a rich playboy indulgence of his. Kind of like buying a yacht and spending a few months sailing around the Caribbean.
We don't need any more Kennedy's in the US Senate.
