LOL! Team O in Full Panic Mode Over Romney-Ryan Crowd Sizes and Fundraising
Romney and Ryan, living rent-free in Obama’s head.
This is funny. Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan had massive crowds turn out to hear them speak in swing states ever since Saturday morning when Romney announced Ryan was his pick for the VP slot. The Republican base is fired up and ready to go. Not only are they turning out for these big events, they’re also opening up their wallets big time. It was estimated that 15,000 people showed up to see them in North Carolina and another 10,000 in Wisconsin! Not to mention the pollsshowing a nice bounce for the Romney campaign, especially among independent voters.
Now Team O is in full panic mode.
The recent frantic email theme to supporters from Team Obama about Mitt Romney’s run-away fundraising successes has been expanded to the crowd size gap between the thousands who rushed out over the weekend to see Romney and new running mate Rep. Paul Ryan and the hundreds who cheered on President Obama.
The big worry expressed in a new email from Obama’s Chicago HQ: “The Republican base is energized.” The reason: Romney attracted 15,000 at a rally over the weekend.
The email: …
Go read the whole thing. They’re asking for $3 to help turn things around. That’s right, if enough of you just fork over three little dollars they’ll be able to rally their base and find more than 600 people to show up to see Vice President Joe Biden in North Carolina.
No wonder Debbie Wasserman Schultz has been on a such a dishonest tear, and Obama is sounding like a fact-challenged carnival barker.

Shouldn’t be long before they’ll be asking for two dollars.

anyone who thinks team R&R is going to anything other than what their bankster masters tell them to do is as brain dead as an Obammabot.
The best thing that could happen to america would be for Obumbles to get re-elected, that way the 2nd american revolution will begin much quicker than a slow-death by more hope & change – smoke & mirrors gubbermint.

@spymyeyes — You will get zero sympathy from those that comment here when you use OccuScum keywords like banksters.
Most political offices are bought and sold. Strangely, the only ones that aren’t are when the candidate refuses any money and just spends his own. Libtards love to call that “buying the office” but how can it be? If major donors donate to a campaign, then the candidate is beholden to them. In essence, they bought the office. If the candidate spends only his money, he is beholden to no one except those that voted for him.
If you want to spew OccuScum rhetoric, fine. Just don’t expect any understanding from us.

I have a dear friend in Richmond who was like a second mother to me as a child. She’s a lifelong dem but took a good long look at Barry in ’07 and promptly joined the Tea Party. She emailed a couple days ago to say she had attended the R&R rally in Ashland and that it was one of the most thrilling experiences of her life. She’ll tell anyone who will listen *exactly* why she changed parties after 50 years.
That’s got to scare the hell out of them.

The trick will be to keep this enthusiasm and momentum going and growing for the next 11 weeks.
I expect that there will be a combination of major desperation-induced Oblowme/Biden gaffes, and some good material already in R&R’s ammo box that they will hold back for the right moment to use.
The one thing that I do worry about are these stupid-ass “debates” that are moderated by screaming libs. Who determines these events and why do we have to endure the gotcha sound-bite, factually challenged format that is used? Give me a Lincoln-Douglas debate!
Other than that, I’m pumped for the campaign and election.

Can one of the campaign managers teach these guys to take a picture together where it doesn’t look like they’re about to kiss?

Obama and Biden will be paying thousands of people to show up at their rallies pretty soon.
