Democrats getting outspent? Not so fast - Jeanne Cummings - POLITICO.com

So far, the latest figures show that the Democratic Party machinery has outraised its Republican counterpart in this campaign cycle by almost $270 million.

And even when outside spending on television advertising and direct mail is added to the mix, Republicans still haven’t closed the gap.

The money race totals come to $856 million for the Democratic committees and their aligned outside groups, compared to $677 for their Republican adversaries, based on figures compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics.

I love the way the Times reported it.

Lost in all of the attention paid to the heavy spending by Republican-oriented independent groups in this year’s midterm elections is that Democratic candidates have generally wielded a significant head-to-head financial advantage over their Republican opponents in individual competitive races.

Isn't that amazing? It takes more than money to win an election. The single biggest spender in history is probably going to loose, and the party that not only outspent the Republicans, but all of the independents who chipped in to support them is also going to loose. how long do you think they are going to whine about the money the other side spent after they loose?
