I just read a piece (somewhere...) saying that the Dems had made a mistake
in allowing the 527s to bear so much of the load: they are not allowed to
share their lists, and so the Dems do not have access to the millions of
contacts the orgs do, whereas the Repubs maintained the contacts
themselves.

That's probably most of the disparity Barone notes, right there.
