Senate Republicans in New York have built quite a large campaign war chest, winning the war for money over Democrats. The Senate Republican Campaign Commitee is expected to announce today it has 4.8 million dollars in cash on hand, compared to just 200-thousand held by Democrats. Democrats say they aren't worried; they consistently raise less cash then Republicans, but have only lost six Senate seats in the last decade.
