Mittens to rejoin presidential race

[Cypress]

From the "this could be awesome" files: Willard Mittens Romney may rejoin the presidential race. Ha!

It's probably not likely. Yet, speculation is that if Grandpa gets shut down by the FEC for hitting his spending limit, the McCain campaign will have to go dark until the GOP convention. Completely being overwhelmed by Obama with money.

Mittens to the rescue! All Mittens has to do is whip out his personal check book, to stay on the air and compete with Obama through to the conventions.



Romney may rejoin GOP presidential race.

The Los Angeles Times is reporting that “Josh Romney, one of former Gov. Mitt Romney’s five sons, says it’s ‘possible’ his father may rejoin the race for the White House.” Earlier this month, Romney “suspended” his campaign and endorsed Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) bid a week later. But Romney has yet to comment on the recent New York Times article on McCain’s close ties to lobbyists and “still retains control of the nearly 300 delegates he’s already won.”

You're either drunk or stupid.

We've been generous assuming the former.

You can't limit a candidate, even if they are accepting public funds, from spending their own money.

 

[Chapdog]

well looks like we have a front runner for VP then.

I don't think McCain will be so limited. He hadn't received any of the funds. His nemesis in the Party is just making an ass of himself.

The FEC takes a different view. Essentially, the FEC says that McCain pledged the public funds as security for private financing and is therefore locked into the public financing system.

Additionally, he has already opted in and can only opt out with FEC approval. The FEC can't meet because they don't have a quorum.

EDIT: If he is in the system and spends more that the cap there are serious penalties, both civilly and criminally.

It's rubbish. He pledged that he would take those funds "if needed" in the contract. As I said, his nemesis is just making an ass of himself. Basically he is saying that because they can't meet he can't get out and "that's that".

 

[Socrtease]

And to think this whole FEC thing has been orchestrated by a fellow traveler from the republican party. Is this how the conservatives intend to damage McCain? Use a pawn in the FEC to shut him down till august? The big tent seems to be putting partitions up now.
