can win any election. While there have been a few exceptions to this theory (think Forbes) it has been mostly true in the past. The candidate with the most money tends to win. I guess we will soon be learning whether this theory is correct. This is the first election after Citizens United. It will be interesting to see whether there is hope for the species or if we are about to drown in our own fiscal effluvia.
