WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic donors online gave their party’s House campaign arm almost $5 million in the week that ended Friday, a record for the group attempting the uphill task of ousting Republicans from their majority.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee unleashed a torrent of emails, Facebook posts and tweets this week pushing messages that House Republicans planned to impeach President Barack Obama. The result was $4.8 million in online giving, DCCC chief Steve Israel announced Friday.
