A serious candidate tells you up front that they are looking for money, and they come right out with why.

These are spam-like emails from, or rather via, DK and directly from new "progressive Democratic" organizations that didn't seem to exist last week. Always pretending to be a news article of some sort, or else a "survey," and then a pitch for money after a questionable round of poll results, or a response to $6 trillion in dark Republican money that just showed up last night in the race for Sioux City dog catcher.
