Blunt campaign benefits from GOP House members, PAC donations

You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours.

Former GOP House Whip Cong. Roy Blunt has done plenty of favors for his GOP colleagues in Congress, raising millions through his Rely on Your Beliefs PAC. Now, it appears, it's his turn to reap the benefits.

Last quarter, Blunt, who's running for Missouri Senate, was among the top Republican recipients of PAC money -- much of which came from his colleagues in Washington.

Many of the Republicans once helped by Blunt's PAC are donating to his Missouri Senate race, helping him raise nearly $100,000 last quarter from the PACs or campaign funds of congressional Republicans. Almost three out of four of the Republican House members who have given to Blunt's Senate race were once aided by his Rely on Your Beliefs PAC.

With friends like these, Blunt will have plenty of insider party help to build a massive campaign war chest -- and that's all the more reason EMILY's List candidate Robin Carnahan will be counting on our support to level the playing field and win in 2010.
