Harry Mitchell's support greater with individuals; Hayworth liked more by lobbyists.

Great observation from our pal cpmaz at Random Musings:
All of JD's money advantage is in contributions from PACs.

All of it.

He picked up $256,450.38 from PACs during the period; Harry received $91,543. That's a difference of $164,907.38.

If JD's obvious and utter sellout to corporations and industry PACs doesn't open up the eyes of his remaining supporters, how about this -

In the area of contributions from individuals, Harry raised $225,803.04; JD raised $222,474.10.

JD, the "vaunted" campaigner, was outraised (in $$$) and outhustled (in raw number of contributors) in outreach to individuals by Harry Mitchell.

Those numbers speak of the kind of grassroots support that turns incumbents out of office.

Recent polls have given hope, but while JD Hayworth and Rick Renzi are poor excuses for Congressmen, they are very good campaigners.

Now is the time to redouble our efforts.

I'll go along with that! Please support Harry Mitchell and return integrity to Congress.
