The $3,000,000 pledged and being collectied to fight Collins or other R creature in 2020 is silly.

How about 3 million for Heidi NOW, with days to go to Victory....and a million for the yes on Kavanaugh man in WV (D)?

Later WV suggestion optional.

We need every warm body in a Senate D seat for the hope and change for real to come, and with the House in our grasp we have the Hope part near covered!

Two million smackers in the NK ad market could turn things around real quick!

"Silly?" Hardly. Maybe other priorities, but raising that amount was a useful public repudiation. Nt FreepFryer Oct 2018 #3
Let's hope that someone beside Jill Stein is in charge of collecting that $3-million. stopbush Oct 2018 #4

Republicans have been doing it throughout the country in races that they decided are just unwinnable, pulling all funding and funneling it to more competitive races. I'm not saying Heidi is dead in the water, but the last few polls that have come out have her trailing by double digits with less than a month to go.

The time is getting close where the DNC will have to make a choice: Keep financially supporting her even though her odds are looking extremely bleak, or pull the financial support of her and give it to people like McCaskill and Nelson who are in statistical dead heats.
