Georgia on our Minds...
The folks at Politico sum up the short Obama coattails in GA, noting, "Democrats have given a lot of lip service to the Georgia runoff, but don’t seem to have put their money behind their man. USA Today reports that Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss “raised $1.6 million in large contributions — amounts of $1,000 or more — from Nov. 13 through Nov. 21 compared with $462,000 for [Jim] Martin.” Outside groups have done even more, as the NRSC has put $2.5 million into the race, more than twice that of outside Democratic groups.
