I don't understand how either amount of money on television can have any demonstrable effect on an election. While this opponent may have poor name recognition the Democrat Party has an extreme hold on the vote process in Massachusetts. How much money has Mr. Simmon's raised for his campaign so far? This is always one of the considerations I use when considering a donation to a candidate. <br>Also, as Whitney has stated, Mr. Simmons says he needs the entire $12,000 from National. That isn't legal. There are ways around things but that all takes extra time. Even if members cosponsored this it would still be at least a day before it even started being voted on and then would take up to 10 days after that. This motion doesn't meet the amount he says he MUST have from the LNC and doesn't meet his time frame.
