Poor ole Libby Dole...has to use her own money for her re-election campaign

CONCORD, N.C. — Republican Sen. Elizabeth Dole says she is spending some of her own money on her first re-election bid, trying to offset millions of dollars in negative spending Democrats have used to make the race one of the closest in the country.

Dole and her campaign declined to detail how much she has pledged to her campaign, but the commitment came recently enough that it won't appear in campaign finance reports due this week.

"You get such a lot coming at you and spending a great deal of time raising money - there just comes a point when you feel like you need to put some skin in the game," Dole said.
