The NRCC finally opens its wallet -- they spent nearly $4 million today, while the DCCC threw down $3.8 mil (but were aided by groups like the Defenders of Wildlife and the Humane Society).

I'm sure the D-trip will be filing many more ad buys tomorrow. More details are available at SSP's IE tracker.

Are those f'ing eye doctors

finally using their powers for good instead of evil and supporting Giffords? Or did the colors get switched?

Peace. Love. Gabby.

they give to lots of Dems

I looked it up when I saw they were spending on behalf of eye doctor Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R) in IA-02 against Dave Loebsack. They didn't seem to give disproportionately to Rs.

OH-15

Kilroy was lading by 10 in the polls. Stupid, Mr. Cole. Stupid.

Erick Paulsen really is their Golden Boy if they are throwing money as Ashwin Madia had a 2-1 (2279 K to 1140 K0 in spending as of yesterday. More super brains from Cole.

I thought Reichert was leading? Guess not?

Also interesting that they saw no reason to back Michelle Backman in MN-6. I guess they are feeding her to the sharks.

I wonder if Ms. (Mrs.? I hope not) Bachmann will get some help soon.

If polls start showing her behind, I know the NRCC will step in. I can't really see a scenario where they let her go. She does have enough money right now but we'll see.
