Romney is spending his brains out

Candidate covered $6.5 million campaign debt out of own pocket

Nam Y. Huh / AP Former Mass. Gov. Mitt Romney spent $20.5 million while only raising $14 million between April and June.

BOSTON - Mitt Romney's campaign found 9,732 ways to spend its money last quarter.

From a $15 service fee for its travel agent to $31,500 to rent the Boston Red Sox's Fenway Park for a celebratory barbecue, the Republican presidential contender was anything but fiscally conservative in spending money as fast as he raised it between April and June.

Based on the report Romney filed with the Federal Election Commission over the weekend, his spending was so prolific he had to lend his committee $6.5 million during the quarter, allowing him to cover the difference between $20.5 million he spent and the $14 million he raised.
 


"Romney spending it faster then he can get it"


Wasn't this guy's whole claim to fame, was that he knew how to manage a state budget prudently?

I'm starting to think that I should believe the exact opposite of whatever comes out of a republicans mouth; i.e., If they babble about family values and morality, I'm going to assume they're buying hookers or getting gay massages.

I thought this was ironic. After reading Cypress' post above I started reading the NAACP thread. Blackascoal ended his post with the sentence below (which I agree with)...

"""As Cypress has eloquently said, we cannot judge groups of people by individual acts of ignorance."""

Anyone who voted for Bush twice, is an idiot. There was more than enough information by 2004, to show conclusively that he was an incompetent moron that was totally out of his league in this job. So, collectively, anyone that cast a vote for him again in 2004 is a moron.

Now, if black (asian, white, whatever) people - who understand the laws of gravity - decided to collectively jump off a cliff anyway, I would call them, collectively, idiots too.

That's different than what you said in the previous post. You used examples of behavior by individual Republicans to skeewr (sp) the whole group. You are by no means the only one who does this of course (myself included). That went against what blackascoal's quoted you as saying.

What you are saying above about people who voted for Bush is different than what you said in the prior post.
