They're blaming the economic downturn, apparently because Sisyphean projects like making the GOP gay-friendly (I don't think LCR considers itself a B or T organization) are the first things to go when we all have to tighten our belts.
But this was interesting:
"Really what we anticipated was that 2008 would be a better year fundraising-wise based on what we've seen in other presidential election years," he said. "We just didn't see the fundraising materialize the way that we expected."
Hm. I went to check their 990's to see if that was true and if I could find anything interest. It really looks like their campaign efforts on Mitt Romney's behalf might have used up a bulk of this money.
