Let the Smears Begin

The SJ had a report today on Monica Wehby's fundraising and couldn't resist a shot at her over the Koch brothers. The media looks at the Kochs like the picture to the left - monsters that are out to wreck the United States and they (shudder!) gave money to Wehby's campaign. Oh my! Leaving aside the question of whether the Koch brothers are as bad as the mediaites would have you believe, the article softsoaps the fact that Merkley, Wehby's Democratic opponent, raised twice as much as she did in the same timeframe. And were these all grandmas sending in their $25 donations or more like SEIU or the AFL-CIO or Harry Reid and the DNC sending some serious green? Any guesses? Stand by for the media report on his contributors. Cue the crickets.
