I have... well, let's see... enough for a book of stamps. And, some leftover yard signs.

But then, I don't get contributions, don't have an army of volunteers, nor access to PACs or lobbyists.

On the other hand, I'd never take a dime of PAC money, or from lobbyists*. The volunteers would be nice, though...



* Well, I might TAKE the money, but only once, because I wouldn't vote their way, and therefore wouldn't get future contributions from lobbyists.
