DSCC Outraises NRSC In November
The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee continues to hold a strong cash advantage over their Republican counterparts, Roll Call reports, and it's only getting bigger.
The DSCC raised $4.1 million and spent $2.1 million for the month of November, and has $25.5 million cash on hand. The National Republican Senatorial Committee, on the other hand, only brought in $2.3 million and spent $1.4 million, and has $10.4 million on hand.

Don,unless you live in a state with two Democratic senators, the finger points at you and the other Dems in your state. Until there are enough Dems in the Senate to stop a filibuster, legislation opposed by the White House will not pass. A simple majority works in the House, but not under Senate rules.
"Until there are enough Dems in the Senate to stop a filibuster"
Please explain to me how the Repubs managed so well then without a filibuster-proof majority. Thank you.

It's nice that the Dems have alittle cash, but the Republicans will have all the money they need, and then some.
