James and Richard ($10 donation) are the 'grass roots' for Mittens!...lol

Great! Now the great hope of the buisness world can't balance his check book! what's next Santorum runs a brothel in Nevada? :)

What a fiscal conservative ol' Willard is... lmao

Newt is pissed because Robert DeNiro joked about the country not being ready for a white first lady yet. Come on Newt, we look at your wife and she looks so white she's almost transparent and so are you.

James is sucking off the evil Gubment teat and manages to write a check to a Super Pac?

Unbelievable! How does any rational person who claims to be unemployed write a check for anything but food or a household expense?

Slash and burn baby!

Handouts for the layabouts will soon be a thing of the past!

Right Rob ... just re-bundle them and hand them out to the rich.

Is it me, or is there something obscene about all the money BOTH parties are spending on this election? (And before folks get their partisan panties in a wad, I said BOTH parties) It sort of seems like both sides are trying to buy the election. Wonder what the founding fathers would have thought of this? Almost seems like prostitution. Question is who is the john and who is the prostitute?

You should bring your grievance to Obama he's the one that gave half a billion to his rich buddies at Solyndra.

Who is the pimp?

SCOTUS is the pimp by allowing the Citizens United ruling, I do believe.

And Rob, BOTH sides are to blame. Your holier than attitude about the GOP isn't becoming. Just ask Karl Rove. You completely missed the point about the political parties and their pacs buying this election. I expected a little better from you.

Just pass a law that says for every dollar you spend, you pay a dollar down off of the deficit. We should be out of the hole in 12 years. :)

BTW, does anyone else think that the front of the Nissan LEAF ad at the side here looks a bit like a VW?

fuzzy,

How come I see both parties (and their super pacs) heads exploding over that idea? But I do like it! :)

For a refreshing change - could you try to stay on topic?

Take your chit-chat to your group... the rest of us are tired of it!

So sorry. We have been on topic, however simply made a comment about the ad on the side. Didn't mean to disturb your serious discussion.

Despite your inflated opinion of yourself, until MSNBC hires you as a moderator, you control nothing here. Absolutely nothing. Completely powerless.

Excuse me two buck Chuck (or should I say Exodite Dragon?) - was I TALKING to you? Talk about an over inflated opinion on ones self! lol

My, how very cavalier of you...

Run along now impotent little boy...

Always liked ED, especially his taste in music. But no, you are powerless and obviously not psychic. Try again, you may get lucky.

How much exhaust do posters emit ... zero if you are off line.

Try again, you may get lucky.

Coming from someone who hasnt gotten lucking in years - that's hysterical (quoting the idiot from Albany)...

Always liked ED, especially his taste in music

Why wouldn't you being ONE & the same? lol

PS: You can fool the sheeple like phine & her followers... the rest of us...eh... not so much!

However, by all means please keep on trying! ;o) It's funnier then hell!

Not ED, but you're not far off. Keep guessing, I'll tell you if you're correct. And stop quoting Joey, that's just wrong.

Groan ... now I know what an Exodite Dragon is ... just another reason to hate Google.

Ahem ... Feisty this string was uncalled for.

Not ED, but you're not far off.

Ahh... I self confessed re-reg... buh bye little buddy! ☺

You got me curious Ideology so I checked also. I admit to being a bit of a nerd, but not to that level. I share your groan.

Got hacked last year by some ne'er-do-well. Alas, the evil in the world.

The hypocrite in red speaks out again... first chastising phancy for saying something about the Leaf... and now F'd up Betty is going way off topic by calling other posters names. Something tells me Betty is overwrought by too many nasty cigarettes and cheap liquor.

Getting back on topic, like F'd up Betty NEVER DOES... What I'm curious about is why would a candidate spend millions and millions of dollars for a job that only pays $250,000 a year? My guess is that there's payola going to the POTUS from other sources... It can't be about the power can it? WAIT a minute... I just remembered who the sitting president is... of course it's ALL about the power... Fundamental change... destroying the Constitution... and the ability to write Executive Orders like the National Defense Resource Preparedness that clears the way for Obama to take over all civilian resources even during peace time.

Well I guess I answered my own question.... OK... ya'll can go back to sleep now... :o)

Thanks Brianb, I may just take your advice.

I wonder if the mainstream media will call Romney a "weak candidate" thru the entire primary, thru the entire general election, thru his entire first term, thru his entire presidency, thru the entire time spent on his presidential memoir?

For a weak candidate he sure seems pretty successful to me.

ROMNEY 2012

Well what do you know... the people voting in Illinois chose Mitt... I guess it's true by all liberal standards... the people in Illinois are simply stupid. No offense to anyone other than F'd up Betty.

The people of Illinois did not choose Romney...the billionaires funding his Super Pac did. The Republican primary voters were just the ones checking the little boxes - as if they had a choice!

Rob in ma,

That is the weakest statement I have ever heard from a supporter when his candidate won by 50%. LOL

Come on you need to show your enthusiasm...

You know what? Its on topic NOW!

Feisty, are you seriously fighting with people who easily are your allies on Newsvine?

Next thing I'm going to be looking for is Joe from Albany getting into some stew with Nojo.

Wow. And the vitriol. I mean, really? I appreciate a good scathing comment just like anyone but when people get so insulting over a simple off topic comment (and not THAT off topic, there's the advert right to my right...) I begin to wonder about people's well being.

Not accusing, just wondering. If its all about the flame war, all I can do is watch. Or throw gas. I'll stick to watching for now.

But, but, he's a fiscal conservative. That is, if spending twice what you take in can be considered fiscally conservative. I guess these definitions are fluid.

Chucky, if you mean by fluid like being on the high seas, please get me some Dramamine!

Forrest,

Oh yeah, well Obama is spending money on his campaign, like he spends taxpayers money. No end in sight.

Either way its disgusting to watch.

I guess his idea to fix the hole in his campaign budget will be to reduce the contributions by the wealthiest donors, because that is what he prescribes for the nation. Wow this guy is a pitiful candidate, he is just one giant contradiction his words have never matched his actions.

thetotas,

The GOP is doing its fair share of spending. Seems a bit like the old pot/kettle thing. Now be honest, okay?

phine,

I was being honest. I was referring to both GOP and Dems. I only mention Obama to get Forrest going.

So take back the kettle thing. ;)

thetotas,

Will do. I am sure I can find something else to put in that pot and kettle! :)

Ha, don't get me started thetotas!

Forrest,

You're so easy!

Well I am off to fight traffic, thirty two miles and it takes me an hour and twenty minutes to get home.

Yeah well now I have a mental image of Mitt Romney trying to sing and doing a spaz dance to the Rick James tune "Super Freak" with the words Super Pac substituted for super freak. He is very naughty boy, the kind you don't bring home to fiscal conservative mother, he is a super pac, a super pac, he is super pac-ing out.

Hey Forrest... You might not want to push Mitt Romney around too much... Right now it's pretty even money he might become the POTUS... and just think how much fun that will be for you guys starting in 2012... There'll be a whole new round of jokes... might even bring back some memories starting from 2000. Just in case, in potential preparation, you might want to start thinking those jokes out... Gotta have our Grump jokes... :o)

If Romney is president the jokes will write themselves, But honestly I don't think he will be elected.

When my granddaughter was little she LOVED Bob the Builder (Can we build it? Yes we can)

LOL - God,phine - is there anybody who has been exposed to kids that hasn't caught themselves in a - "can we build it? yes we can" moment ?! Thanks for the chuckle

...and the results demonstrate that is $12.2 Million well spent!!!

---------------------------------------------------------

He's locked up a solid 31% of the GOP vote. Of course Pri.... um.....Rick Santorum has locked up 30.5% by spending considerably less. Go Mitt go! Let the $ flow!

Da Noid----Romney outspends Santorum and Gingrich in every state and loses or barely wins (except in his base support areas in the territories). And yet they keep the money flowing to him.

How much money will have come general election time? Even these big pac donors are going to start to get tapped out, aren't they?

Well it's his religion, he is a more-man.

Forrest,

Oh dear lord! That's funny! Must remember to use that one on the hubby if you don't mind!

Help yourself Phine.
