Today is July 15th, which is the deadline for filing financial reports with the FEC.
And as always, Lou Barletta is much more open and honest with the voters than his opponent Paul Kanjorski.
when asked by a local newspaper reporter how much money Kanjorski's campaign has raised this quarter, spokesman Ed Mitchell stated "You'll have to wait until it's posted on the FEC site, just like every other media outlet."
It would seem Mr. Mitchell has the same regard for the intelligence of the voters as Paul Kanjorski does.
Sorry Ed, but after the reports are made public, we will learn that a LOT of Kanjorski's campaign contributions came from the PAC's of investment houses and sub-prime mortage lenders.
Lou Barletta, on the other hand, had no problem with disclosing the fact that his COngressional campaign raised slightly over $515,000, most of which came from working-class folks contributing 10 or 20 dollars.
And that, Mr. Kanjorski, doesn't bode well for you come November.
Because it shows that, while you may have the big political action committes and the Wall Street boys on your side, Lou Barletta has someone much more important on his side.
The voters.
