Yesterday, the really big bucks, at the Missouri Ethics Commission:

C121403 10/05/2012 RGA MISSOURI PAC Republican Governors Association 1747 Pennsylvania Ave. NW Ste. 250 Washington DC 20006 10/4/2012 $3,000,000.00

C111205 10/05/2012 SPENCE FOR GOVERNOR RGA Missouri PAC 1747 Pennsylvania Ave. NW Ste. 250 Washington DC 20006 10/5/2012 $950,000.00

[emphasis added]

They always have all the money they need.

I’m beginning to believe republicans oppose campaign finance reform because they want to prop up the republican campaign operative industrial complex, mail houses, and broadcasters. And there is that small matter of influencing elections with an influx of excessive amounts of money, too.
