GOP yanks funding for Putins favorite congressman Rohrabacher as campaign collapses
https://www.rawstory.com/2018/10/gop-yanks-funding-putins-favorite-congressman-rohrabachr-campaign-collapses/
The Congressional Leadership Fund is responsible for gathering and dispersing multi-million-dollar checks from the GOPs biggest donors and will spend $12 million on cable television ads in Southern California.
However, Dana Rohrabacher and Mimi Walters from suburban Orange County will not get any ad buys on their behalf, the Los Angles Times reports.
As the GOP struggles with how to spend its money, suburban California Republicans are at great risk, the paper reports, because of the states exorbitant advertising costs.
Money saved in the costly Los Angeles media market can be spread over several contests in other states that may be considered more winnable, the Times writes.

(10,437 posts)2. GOP dam has 100 leaks and they do not have enough fingers to plug them
if this election will bring out all those democrats/liberals/progressives/independents who have spent years sitting on their asses, if these people come out an actually VOTE, we will be witnessing history
the GOP will be fractured beyond repair for several election cycles. It will take many millions more of new voters to make it happen
