Source: Liberal Groups Raking In Money Off GOP Opposition To Stimulus

Whatever you think of the politics of it, the House GOP’s decision to oppose President Obama’s stimulus package en masse has been awfully good for the left’s fundraising.
According to a source close to the Campaign for Jobs and Recovery, which is the group coordinating efforts by labor unions and other outside liberal groups to push Obama’s stim package and target its GOP opponents, the group raised nearly a half a million dollars in the 48 hours following the House vote.
Money continues to “roll in at a steady clip,” the source says.
Indeed, WaPo’s Chris Cillizza reports that the group is uncorking a new slate of TV ads targeting Republican Senators that will cost in the neighborhood of $600,000. So the House GOP’s actions, in effect, are funding ads against their Senate counterparts.
