Schumer vs. Dole, Q3 edition
From Kos, this is encouraging. Unlike 04, quality Dem candidates are stepping forward, and the money is coming in to support them:
We already know that Schumer and the DSCC is kicking Liddy Dole's ass in candidate recruitment. Now, for the second straight quarter, Schumer has kicked her ass in fundraising.
From the DSCC press release:
Continuing its cash-on-hand advantage over its Republican counterpart, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee has $19 million in its coffers at the end of the third quarter of 2005, while the National Republican Senatorial Committee carries only $9.4 million. The DSCC brought in about $8.8 million this quarter while the NRSC pulled in $7.3 million. The DSCC has enjoyed a nearly 2-to-1 cash on hand advantage over its Republican counterpart for the better part of this election cycle.
Meanwhile, the NRSC is spending precious dollars attacking fellow Republican Lafee in the Rhode Island Republican primary.
Stumble It!
