Those who want to make comparisons of Romney''s spending to the spending of the other candidates need to make it an "apples to apples" comparison. They would have to include all the network resources "donated" by the Mainstream Media in their fawning over McCain and Huckabee and writing 90 percent of their Romney articles with a negative slant. McCain and Huckabee haven''t had to spend a dime of their personal wealth fighting against inbred media bias.

Romney looks too much like Foley and Craig and that Haggard to me. He looks greezy. Wear gloves if you shake that hand.

Internet is a good place to share information and meet friends. I recently found a nice web site called pubspa.com where you can meet friends who have same interest in beauty care, massage, wellness and spa treatment. You can also share blog, video, game, photos, etc with people from all over the world. Unlike other online dating sites where you have to pay membership fee, this site is totally free. I already made several interesting friends there.

WarDog-

its all over if you google some of the key words, ''romney offshore tax exempt accounts'' etc... or ''romney bain venture capital bankruptcy'' etc... will show up with news articles of various similarities from lots of different newspapers and online news sources like politico. this stuff has been dogging him since he ran for senate years ago... and he lost because of it, many employees he had screwed over made a stink in the media. good for them i say.

you want a good larf, google romneys former director of operations - Jay Garrity, talk about ethics....

incog-nito "why democrat candidates are mostly getting
donations from regular folks are so high."

I am a democrat that voted in the primaries for yes, RON PAUL. Believe you me, I never thought I would do that. But, I did a research on ALL the candidates on both sides. I repeat, I did a research on ALL the candidates on both sides. I hate to tell you this, but
besides RON PAUL, KUCINICH and GRAVEL they are ALL
bought and paid for. Yes, Obama, Clinton, Edwards, McCain, Romney and Huckabee. YES, THEY ARE ALL CORRUPT!! I am sorry to tell you that, but obviously
you have not done your research on your candidates.
Even Biden and Richardson are CORRUPT!!!!! People
do your research and you will see. Why do you think
all the news media is censoring RON PAUL?????? THEY
DO NOT WANT YOU TO VOTE FOR HIM. The Ron Paul supporter''s do not totally agree with him 100% but they are the one''s who have done their research. That
is why he has such strong supporter''s the other candidates would just love.
There is no such thing as a "free press" because it is
owned by persons belonging to the wealthy class of our
society in America and they have an agenda...as they
also have the power to MAKE or BREAK presidential candidates by how much coverage they provide and the
quality of coverage provided.
Media owners involved: David Rockefeller
Edgar Bronfman
Rupert Murdoch
Sumner Redstone
Ted Turner

woman76: Have you stopped and considered for a second why contributions to Dem candidates, mostly from regular folks, are so high? Could it be because more people are fed up with the GOP and want change in the White House? Could it be that more people who formerly give to the GOP camp are now switching side? Has any of this ever cross your mind?

Romney''s personal money is the best chance the GOP has to fight the mainstream media and the contributions of the democrats. As of Sept, the Dems out raised the Republicans by 68 million! Can McCain and Huckabee compete with that! NO WAY!
