Thought the Tea Party spent the bucks donated by the fervent masses on issues and candidates?
Think again.
While all of them suck, the Tea Party Express and Sarah Palin's PAC are the worst. duh.
Tea Party Express
Total receipts were $9,501,795, with expenses of $9,447,467 and $381,098 benefiting candidates. That’s 96 percent on expenses and 4 percent to candidates. As worthless as the Tea Party Express is in rationing out just a mere 4 percent to candidates, they too must have their politicking prowess questioned when more than $200,000 of their total went to Owen Hill, who withdrew in March when Cory Gardner stepped into the race.
Sarah PAC
Total receipts were $2,068,666, with expenses of $2,120,019 and $106,000 benefiting candidates. That’s 95 percent on expenses and 5 percent to candidates. With just a measly one-hundred grand in candidate support, Sarah Palin’s PAC basically has taken a shotgun approach by doling out $5,000 cash contributions to eight senatorial candidates, and a half-dozen House candidates, most of which are notable for their primary losses.
Question.
I wonder how much of those millions was donated by unintelligent, impressionable, old people and rednecks?
