the best thing we can do is to vote for the people you do not hear about. for they will come more out to listen to the people and do not have big money controlling them.

Obama Will Be Lynched If You Don't Vote For Kay Hagan
Kay Hagan
(D-NC) supporters in North Carolina are also engaging in a bit of inelegant race-baiting.

ABC just posted an article about the top 10 billionaires dumping money into campaigns.

Mostly democrat money by a longshot. Kochs didn't make the top 10.

Beetle, I'd be happy for a rule that said donors could only support candidates and causes that directly affect their district. That'd clear about a hundred mil from the cycle in NC.

WG, the 500 M has been shown to be a fabrication. Education funding has increased every year under his leadership. Most folk assume that research dollars are always used for noble purposes and always yield results. The truth is that most research institutions are an organism with a singular goal of institutional survival. Grants enable pompous pHDs to continue their tenured aristocracy. Real research is connected with profit potential. That's why the RTP generates more valuable research than Duke, NCSU and UNC combined. Can't say much about birth control.

sparkling water, I just googled the net worth of the four individuals we are discussing.

Koch 1 =41 billion

Koch 2 =41 billion

Bloomberg =33 billion

Soros =20 billion

I grant you the playing field is even, but still coming from outside. I really haven't heard the dem's names brought up in the political ads like the kochs have. But I agree with you their money is there.

Canesfan you are so funny stupid at the same time...you post things with no knowledge of the person(s) you post on...as for Hagen Supporters tell us why three different Poll show her three points ahead of the lying Thom Tillis and untruth facts he and his supporters spread..like the stimulus package Hagen's family supposedly got under the table...when the facts are shown that the CBO investigating unit found all the money sent to the family were legal...unlike Tillis who claims to have lived in a Trailer as many do now ...he was the same as them...without revealing that he bought the Park the trailer was in as an investment and then help pass state regulation that he directly benefitted...oh he so slimy...all the ads you see him with are with those in his income category.....have yet to see a group of Teachers backing him....oh wait he help cut a major portion of the Education Fund of some $500 Million.... and cut funding for Breast Cancer and Birth Control...yeah he is so women supported...NOT...but for us you need to do some research you dummy...meet us some where with facts to back your posting of being .... you must be one who stays home your on here so often each day...

I would wager a small sum that two kochs give more than kay's total

The Liberal Socialists know she will support their agenda if elected. They want every senate seat so they can continue with the stagnation of our country. The NRA is campaigning against her because she will vote against the 2nd Amendment if she's given the opportunity. If the Dems maintain control Reid will do nothing and let Obama use his so called pen and phone type of governing.

Voting Sean Haugh is the same as voting Hagen. There are two paths only. Hagen's path is more of the same decline we have suffered already. Tillis may be beholden to wealthy interests, but he represents an ideology that wants to create wealth for more people. Haugh cannot win. Change in this election cycle can only come if Tillis is elected.

After Tillis wins, we should talk about a viable third party.

Probably because the only people in North Carolina that supports Hagan is You Lie, Wrestling Grandpa, kenc, and Umpire and as welfare recipients that sit at home all day watching cartoons (MSNBC) they don't qualify as rich.

I guess that means that whoever is elected will be on a leash whose other end is held out of state.

probably because most people in north carolina don't have any money to give.

this is news on donations to candidates to you?... let's be assured that the KOCHROTHERS are little folk from NC?.... Independent and Proud most of the money donated to Tillis's Campaign is from outside the State....but huntercoin can find out where the money comes from by going to FEC Site....that candidates are required to file where money's come from....

Probably because us little folk in NC know better than to waste our hard earned dollars on her to spend on illegals. Illegals are at the bottom of her to-do list.

And the majority have been large donors?
