So why have not seen any numbers from the Democrats running in this race??? Does that mean they have not raised nearly as much as Saxby???
Way to go Saxby!!!

Sometimes all the money in the world can’t hide the truth. Saxby has been an embarrassment to this state since before he was elected, and in November, it’ll be time for him to go.

…And money continues to define our politics. About 1/3 of 1 percent of the state’s citizens, usually wealthy folk, write nice big checks to the candidate, and BAM! they have themselves their own personal senatorial candidate.

As a lifelong Republican I’m done with party over principle. Now it’s the other way around. And frankly I’ve never seen any outrage from the Saxter. He’s up there in the snake pit and I’ve never seen any controversy coming from his direction. As Ted Nugent once said: “If you ain’t making waves you ain’t paddling”.

Saxby is an empty suit. This state could do better selecting the first person in the phone book with a stupid first name.
