Florida Democrats claim cash advantage over Republicans

by Michael C. Bender | January 11th, 2010

democratdonkeyFlorida Democrats are crowing over the amount of money they raised and how many voters they signed up in 2009.

According to this memo sent to party faithful this morning, Democrats have $2.6 million cash on hand, or about $1 million more than Republicans. The Democrats also extended their registration advantage to 800,000 over the Florida GOP.

“As you know, the Republican Party of Florida is currently imploding,” FDP executive director Scott Arceneaux wrote in the memo.

“But as Democrats, we can’t just pray the Republicans continue down their losing path; rather, we must get up and fight everyday for the future of Florida. In 2009, the Florida Democratic Party had what can only be described as our most successful non‐election year in our party’s history. Our efforts to strengthen the grassroots, hold Florida Republicans accountable, and recruit strong leaders to run for office moved Florida Democrats well down our path to victory.”

    Crooks can raise money. Look at CharLIE Crist. This is a new erra where “Money won’t buy you love.” Corruption has awakened a sleeping lion of voters and they are looking for honest, conservative candidates to take back this country. From cith hall, county offices, all state offices to Washington, DC. Turn out the light’s, the party’s over. Dems can spend that ill gotten cash to help the economy, while we the people vote in honest folks.
