Democratic Senate candidate Kay Hagan has loaned herself $350,000.

She loaned herself $50,000 in in the Democratic primary which she repaid. She loaned herself another $50,000 in the third quarter and has since loaned her campaign another $300,000, according to her spokeswoman Colleen Flanagan.

That is far less than the $3 million that her opponent Republican Sen. Elizabeth Dole has given to her campaign.

Whether it is Dole from Kansas/DC or Hagan, it is clear that you have to be wealthy to run for office in this country. We are probably missing out on some great people that would be more qualified but unfortunately they lack the resources.

Even though I support KAy Hagan, I think it interesting that she is attacking Dole for doing the same thing: http://www.kayhagan.com/action/buyingherseat
