Koch Brothers spending goal lit a flame, Dems say

Politico reports:
In the City of Brotherly Love, there was none for the Koch brothers among Democratic lawmakers huddled here for their retreat.

Just a few days after the Koch network’s wealthy GOP donors met in the California desert to discuss their plans to spend $889 million over the next two years, Democratic lawmakers received new polling data from White House adviser David Simas in a closed-door meeting Wednesday night that Democrats could use to form a more effective narrative against the billionaire industrialists Charles and David Koch and other Republican donors. The polling presentations come as Democrats grapple with creating a unified message for 2016 — a major criticism of their disastrous performance in the recent midterms.


If only the Koch brothers thought like George Soros , Tom Steyer, and Nancy Pelosi's district full of trustfundtarians.
