DEMOCRAT PARTY CRIES, “POOR ME!”


Democrats have been whining quite a bit of late as they try to convince anyone who will listen that they have somehow managed to get themselves behind in at least one race for the White House, that being the race for big donors.  Now I’m sorry, but I’m finding such nonsense more than just a little absurd.  Democrats have long had an army of billionaires behind them, those willing to spend whatever was necessary to ensure the Democrat mission against America succeeded.  And it is an army that is much larger in both number and in wealth possessed than we could ever hope to have on our side.  I’m sure everyone is quite familiar with names like George Soros, Tom Steyer, Bill Gates or ‘Nanny Mike’ Bloomberg to name only a few.  And how many Hollywood millionaires do they also have in their pocket?  Now granted there have been a couple losses when it comes to Democrat big-money men.  John Sperling and Peter B. Lewis have since moved on to the great beyond, but I’m sure their wealthy families have remained faithful to the list of progressive causes.

According to The New York Times, longtime Hitlery ally Harold Ickes has been hard at work trying to come up with the Democrat answer to the GOP's Koch brothers, Sheldon Adelson, Foster Friess and Norman Braman.   But, or so we’re being told, it hasn't been easy.  It was Ickes who actually told the Times, "Our side isn’t used to being asked for that kind of money."  He went on to say, "If you asked them to put up $100 million for a hospital wing, they’d be the first in line."  Really?  That would be funny if it wasn’t so patently dishonest!  But part of the problem, at least according to the Times, is the expected nominee herself.  Hitlery reportedly isn't meeting with those megadonors on her side.  She also faces the rules limiting candidate coordination with super PACS, which are able to accept the large sums of cash that candidates cannot.  Another problem: People think Hitlery's campaign has a larger budget than it actually does.  Reports of a $2.5 billion budget are more than double her actual budget of $1 billion, again according to the Times.

And I guess we’re also supposed to buy into the myth that Democrats are said not to see any real value of super PACs.  At least that’s what Democrat ‘operative’, Guy Cecil has said.  It was Cecil who reportedly told the Times, "If we are going to be successful in 2016, it will require more from everyone, at every level."  Supposedly the ever-popular Democrat Sugar-Daddy George Soros has yet to pledge his usual, and rather sizable, amount to the Democrat cause.  But there remains many other potential megadonors who will, more than likely, make vast amounts of cash available to the Democrats.  Such a list would include Walmart heiress Alice Walton, Los Angeles investor Ron Burkle and media investor Haim Saban.  The Democrats have never had a problem outraising the Republicans.  And this election will prove to be no different.  After all, it’s the Democrat Party that has become the party of the upper crust, and the affluent, not the Republicans.  Anyone who still believes the myth that Republican Party is the party of the rich, simply hasn’t been paying attention.
