RNC outraises DNC in November
(CNN) - The Republican National Committee on Tuesday reported bringing in $7.1 million last month, down from $8.5 million raised in October.
Meanwhile, the Democratic National Committee raised $6.5 million, with $10.5 million cash on hand and $7.8 million in debt, according to a Democratic official with knowledge of the numbers.
Despite their drop, the RNC said the $7.1 million figure amounts to the most the group has ever raised during the month of November in an off-year.
"Over the past several months, we have broken multiple records at the RNC, and, as a result, our cash-on-hand now totals $14.1 million," said RNC Chairman Reince Priebus in a statement, adding that the group now has more cash in the bank than debt.
Over the last month, the RNC said it cut its debt by more than $500,000. In less than 10 months, the group added more than $13.5 million in cash on hand, while retiring almost $11 million in debt, according to the statement.

Whaaa?
A DROP in contributions from your BASE in the midst of a PRESIDENTIAL election year?
That doesn't bode well for the 'ho, er, home team.
It looks like the wealthy are getting worried about losing their sweet heart deal with the republicans on the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy.
$7 million has been put into political attacks on Newt and others. Romney is learning the advantage of having swift boaters, Rove, and the Kochs on his side.
yawn, still a no win game for these who still don't know what to do. Who is your party choice? 'nough said.
Fools and their money. Fools and their money. Can't see typing the rest.
Well isn't this the party that is mostly for the Rich?
C'mon Rich folk...Give tell it hurts...The rest of the 99% are "HURTING"....Why not share the pain...lol.
All from PACS????
It doesn't matter, thanks to the GOP bought and paid for Supreme Court, Citizens United will provide unlimited money to the GOP.
Remember corporations are people too, only more important than people because they have more money.
Can one percent really afford this much more than ninety-nine percent? OF COURSE, when they are taxed at a lower rate.
good for them..the way things are going the GOP is going to need EVERY cent they can get.
What a waste of campaign funds for the Repubs – they're NOT going anywhere!!

Dear RNC, great work! Please continue your excellent efforts and fight against the socialist in the WH for all of us!
Congratulation to RNC!!! Excellent job!!!
You can thank the Supreme Court for this result. They are the legislative hit-men for the Republican Party and the rich. Remember... corporations are people too!
The Koch brothers are buying Supreme Court judges again...
