From a Martin Wisckol story in the Register yesterday:

One indicator is that the county Republican Party pitched in $666,000 last year to help out campaigns, while the Democratic Party here came up with just $90,000, according to campaign disclosure reports.

That's right, the Number of the Beast plus a few zeros is amount OC Republicans raised last year. "What a stupid thing to point out," you may be saying. Well, yes, but if Barack Obama was associated with that number in any way, you know Barbara Coe would be all over it.

Anyways, while Republicans' fundraising numbers may raise anti-Christ suspicions, the Democrat's 90k in campaign cash confirms another suspicion: When it comes to winning the county, despite a few promising signs in the Wisckol story, Dems still don't have a chance in Hell.
