Money isn't EVERYTHING, but . .

The most recent quarterly campaign finance report on the Missouri 5th District race is downright unsettling. You can read the report here at Open Secrets:
Congressional Elections: Missouri District 05 Race: 2010 Cycle | OpenSecrets

The take-away message here is that Cleaver has received over six times more money in PAC (Political Action Committee) contributions than Jacob Turk has in TOTAL contributions! Turk has received NO PAC money, and NO Leadership PAC money from the Republican Party. They've decided that the 5th District belongs to Cleaver until the day he doesn't want it anymore. This is ridiculous thinking, especially in THIS election cycle!

Until such time as the Republican Party pulls it's head out of it's A$$ and wakes up, Jacob Turk is totally dependent on individual contributions from people like you and me to win this battle for Missouri's 5th District.

So here are two things we can do NOW to help ensure Cleaver is NOT reelected in November:

1. Make a contribution TODAY to Jacob Turk for Congress.

2. If you know any of "The Powers That Be" in the Republican Party, send them this image and tell them to WAKE UP and FUND their 5th District candidate!
