A friend of mine recently commented to me that he was ecstatic about Bill Cassidy's fundraising prowess. I knew that Cassidy has been helped by national Republicans, such as the Vice-President, but that friend was saying, nah, Cassidy has raised $2 million according to The Advocate:
Cassidy picked up contributions from fellow physicians, business executives and GOP political action committees, having collected $2.1 million, which also includes the money he raised for May's special election.
Read that sentence twice, especially ... "which also includes the money he raised for May's special election." Ummm, I'm not sure where the hell the Advocate was in May, but Cassidy didn't run then. That would the current Congressman from this district - Don Cazayoux.
I wonder if this poor journalism, as that Republican friend insisted. I'm not sure ... I think it's the Republican bias of The Advocate shining through. What say y'all?
