Hulshof back in the big bucks

It is a sign of the times when you have raised more than $2 million in a race for governor and your opponent is still leaving you in the dust.

That was the way things were for Republican candidate Kenny Hulshof...until today.

A $400,000 infusion from the Republican Governors Association, which kicked in with $600,000 earlier, plus an additional $50,000 worth of $10,000 donations, lifted Hulshof to $2,452,081 in oversized contributions, still behind Democrat Jay Nixon's $3,044,650.

Hulshof's $10,000 contributions came from Freeman Physicians Group, Joplin; Robert Herman Sr., Ladue; Benny Lee, Top Innovations, Inc., Kansas City; Missouri Society of Anesthesiiologists PAC, Jefferson City; and Anesthesia Associates of Kansas City.
