National Dems Giving To Mongiardo

[nonconformist]

State Sen. Daniel Mongiardo is getting a boost from a national Democratic campaign committee, which has infused his campaign with cash three weeks before the election.

The Washington-based Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee transferred "tens of thousands" of dollars to Mongiardo's election fund, campaign manager Kim Geveden confirmed on Friday. Neither Geveden nor a committee spokeswoman would reveal the amount.

It was the first tangible sign that Democratic leaders in Washington have any hope of winning the race. But many experts say Mongiardo still faces an uphill battle against a better-funded Republican incumbent, U.S. Sen. Jim Bunning.

"If the national liberal Democrats want to throw their money down a hole at a sunken liberal candidate in Kentucky, they can go right ahead," Bunning campaign manager David Young wrote in an e-mail. It's unclear whether the National Republican Senatorial Committee will make a similar contribution for Bunning. Republican committee spokesman Dan Allen said the organization constantly re-evaluates races and "reserves the right to make an investment any time."

Yay for Dr. Dan! And ugh, look at that arrogance from that racist Bunning's campaign. Disgusting.

Mongiardo needs money BADLY. Before this, he only had 600K to Bunning's 4 million.
