Paula Brooks isn't living up to expectations.

Pat Tiberi's opponent in Ohio's 12th congressional district isn't doing so hot with her fundraising.

Paula Brooks, from the 15th congressional district, was supposed to be one of the best candidates Democrats had to offer in their efforts to takeover some Republican House seats.

Instead she's barely stumbling along.

Among those in the targeted DCCC Red to Blue initiative, Brooks comes in close to dead last in cash-on-hand.

If you look deeper into your report you'll find she accepted cash from Nancy Pelosi and.....Jerry Springer. Stay classy, Paula.

Additionally, her own campaign manager ended up contributing 75$ on March 31st, the last day to report contributions. You can't meet your goal by getting your paid staff to give some money back. That's just weird.

Finally, there are very few contributions from other Members of Congress. Maybe they aren't convinced she's a safe place to send their dollars.

Considering the fact she has absolutely no chance in toppling Tiberi, I can't say I blame them.
