Kansas Democrats getting out their checkbooks

Given that Kansas is 45 percent registered Republican and 27 percent registered Democratic, you’d expect the Kansas Republican Party to dominate in fundraising. But the Kansas Democratic Party is showing unexpected strength, raising $3 million to the Kansas Republican Party’s $600,000 over the past six reporting periods. Christian Morgan, state party executive director, responded that GOP fundraising extends to more groups than Democratic fundraising, and predicted the state GOP party’s role will increase after the primary.

    Most of that money from duh Dems is probably from Tiller and his PACs.

    Maybe some former republicans are seeing the light. Now how can rush spin this into an Operation chaos moment?

    I wonder how much of that Republican money is illegal campaign donations like the ones to McCain from Hess oil.
