I admire the sarcasm of the Republican Governors Association: “In what must have been an oversight, the Democratic Governors Association released their second quarter fundraising numbers late Friday afternoon after much of Washington had already departed for the holiday weekend.”

The RGA announced raising $18.9 million in the second quarter, bringing their total for the year to $28 million with $40 million cash on hand. Their Democratic counterparts raised $9.1 million in the second quarter, bringing their total for the year to $17 million with $22 million cash on hand.

That’s bad news for Jerry Brown, Alex Sink, Ted Strickland, Martin O’Malley, Dan Onorato, Diane Denish, John Kitzhaber, Bill White . . .
