Brian Kemp to crush all mere mortals in Georgia Secretary of State's race

Former State Sen. Brian Kemp, who's running for secretary of state, has just put out a fundraising press release. He's really got the full-court press on, and called personally to make sure we got it.

The release says he's raised an impressive figure this early: $267,170 from 425 different donors. It also lists more than 140 different endorsements that basically reads like he could have just said "every important Republican who can feel free to do endorsements" and just saved some time.

Not only that, but his "Kemp Means Business" teams are dotted with big-time names. The Tarbuttons, Leeburns and Reynolds of our world.

I haven't followed this race very closely, but Sandy Springs City Councilman Doug MacGinnitie is also seeking the GOP nomination. I wish him good luck with that.

UPDATE: Whoa! Let the record show that Doug MacGinnitie don't play, and has raised more than $257,000 in the last six months, with only $50,000 coming from a loan.
