As always, this total does not include expenditures from 501(c)(4) groups like Freedom’s Crotch (who have spent a few million bucks against Democrats in a handful of districts) and the Dem-allied Majority Action. The NRA and a few other groups are making some very piddly expenditures in a few races (the NRA on billboards in about a dozen contested districts), but they’re not included in this roundup for the sake of brevity. More details are available at SSP’s Independent Expenditure Tracker.

  3. Does the d-trip feel that good about Kratovil’s chances, or is part of it that Van Hollen and Hoyer really want to get the job done in their backyard?  

    Don’t get me wrong, I am glad it is winnable and they’re spending there, but I think that’s part of why we’re seeing the buying spree in the district.

  4. That the NRCC has dumped more money into this district than other is telling, and it’s pretty clear why, imho.  This is a pretty marginal district, but the Republicans know that if they lose the district, they will never elect a guy as conservative to the First again.  

    Steve Chabot is extremely conservative, and the fact that he has been able to survive in such a close district with such an arch-conservative record is amazing.  They’re doing everything they can to keep the wingnut in the seat.  I can’t say I disagree with Tom Cole’s rationale given his perspective.  

  5. Trying to save my disgrace of a congressman Tom Feeney.  Do they have some sort of scumbag test for who they donate to?  Honestly, wouldn’t it make more sense for them to donate to ultra-conservatives who don’t come off as completely unelectable slimeballs?  Then they wouldn’t need to waste so much money on what should be safely republican districts every cycle.

  6. In 2006, Jeb Bradley outspent Carol Shea Porter by more than 3-1 with CSP spending under $300 k and Bradley spending about $1.1 million.  The NRCC (or maybe RNC) invested their nominal $10 K for a poll and spent elsewhwere.  This time around CSP had already raised $900 K by the 6/30 deadline and the DCCC has poured in over $1 million.  Jeb was back around $700 K and had spent most of that on his primary.
