27. I guess it depends on how you interpret "intervene"
DCCC and DSCC have always had a high threshold for giving $$$ to a candidate. (Must be "viable", etc.) That is the longest-running criticism of it, which is why DFA is so important.

I just don't see DSCC of DCCC as any more of an influence than local city/county based groups, local politicos, or PACS.

I know they will stress their importance and supposed influence, but they are just one of hundreds of political "kingmakers" in the process.
