Sarah Palin’s PAC Raises Over $700,000 – Makes SarahPAC a Player in 2010 Midterm Elections
Posted by: Flap in Sarah Palin
The above Google Ad has been running consistently on Flapsblog for some time and apparently Sarah Palin’s Political Action committee has been successful in other locales as well.
Sarah PAC, the political action committee formed by Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin earlier this year to maintain her national profile, raised $733,000 in the first six months of the year, according to reports filed with the Federal Election Commission today.During that same time period, Palin spent $276,000 –largely on fundraising appeals and consultants — and ended June with $457,000 in the bank. None of Palin’s contributions came from political action committees, an attempt — seemingly — to preserve her outsider and reform credentials.
Now, that Palin will be able to devote more time to raising money (since resigning the Alaska Governorship) SarahPAC revenues cannot help but grow. Moreover, her almost $500K in the bank certainly does make Sarah Palin a player in the 2010 Congressional midterm elections.
Paraphrasing President Obama to Joe the Plumber – she will start spreading the campaign money around…….
By the way, you can contribute to SarahPAC here.
Stay tuned….

Oh yeah! This is one of the languages that the beltway understands. They’ll back off her now and there’ll be politicians falling over themselves in Washington now, trying to impress Palin enough to make her reach for the check-book.
