"The percentage of small-dollar donations for Democrats appears to be accelerating. For example, the DCCC raised $10.2 million in August, with more than half—$5.5 million—coming online. What's more, they got 270,000 online donors that month, or an average of $20 per donation.
Republicans don't have people backing them up. They have a billionaire's round table propping them up. They must stake out Adelson's casino joint begging for money, because without it, they can't keep up."
