The big money is starting to pour in and some seem a little upset about it..

The campaign to re-elect President Barack Obama sent a distress signal Friday to potential contributors, saying they’re being outspent on the air 2-to-1 in Iowa by Republican challenger Mitt Romney.

“We expect Mitt Romney and the Republicans to outspend us,” Obama says in an email to contributors. “What I will not abide is getting outspent by a margin that negates all the hard work our volunteers are doing — talk to voters, knocking on doors, making calls.”

The email goes on to ask contributors for $3 each.

All this extra spending is not showing Romney pulling away in the polls.

That's because he's a fake, and people know or can sense it.

Now when November comes around, I think Iowa will go for Romney, but...

I was surprised to see it, but Iowa over the last few cycled gas gone to the Dem, except for 2004.

Even if he doesn't repeal anything, we're still much better off than with Romney and Obama spending us into oblivion, and signing virtually every bill that makes it to the oval office.

Unfortunately, there has been enough "done" to us in the last 3.5 years that there is much to undo. Whether you call that doing something or not is up to you. I hope if Romney gets elected that he understands that he needs to be the undo president, not a do president, or like Nobama, the doo doo president.

Since most Tea Party members are white? LG is racist IMO.

Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson almost certainly can't win the presidential election this year. But his supporters claim he could determine who does.

"He's going to be a problem for somebody, somewhere," political strategist and Fox News contributor Joe Trippi wrote last month. "We don't yet know which candidate he might harm the most -- but both campaigns should be looking over their shoulders at that guy almost nobody is talking about."

that's a big problem with the Libertarian Party, the best they're ever able to hope for is playing the roll of "spoiler".

Ron Paul, running as a Libertarian, could have had a much greater impact. He certainly could have brought organization and support.

Agreed MG. I really really wished Dr. Paul would have ran as a Libertarian.

You know, Romney isn't officially it yet. You still have time to salvage this.

I'm going to see Paul Ryan tomorrow. I missed Barack when he was in Roanoke, so I figured I'd see Ryan. I'm still undecided.
