Romney Takes Responsibility For His Own Costs – Doesn’t Leave the Bill For Others To Pay in Ohio – LIKE OBAMA
Romney pays own freight in the Falls
As I reported in August, Copley Township is still owed $10,549 for the expenses it incurred during a 2008 campaign stop by then-vice presidential hopeful Joe Biden.
Copley’s fiscal officer, Janice Marshall, sent a bill to the “Obama for America” campaign but never received a penny.
And Fairlawn rang up $34,146 in police overtime and other expenses this summer when President Barack Obama brought his re-election campaign to town and spent the night at the Hilton Akron/Fairlawn.
Shortly thereafter, Fairlawn’s assistant finance director, Patricia Bertsch, sent a bill to the Obama campaign. She said at the time she wasn’t holding her breath. Good thing. She’d still be holding it.
Now along comes Mitt Romney, dishing out his own election patter in Cuyahoga Falls on a Tuesday night in October.
Same deal?
Far from it.
Long before his big rally at the Falls’ Natatorium, Romney’s campaign folks contacted the city, said they’d like to stage an event there and promised to pay for any extra expenses the city would incur.

I don’t see any room for surprise, liberals ALWAYS think someone else should foot the bill.

Hands up anybody surprised by this.
There was also the time when Cankles Clintoon was campaigning in ’08, and she and her posse rang up a huge bill at some restaurant, and she flounced out without paying it.
They are scum, through and through.

The Obama team said, “we didn’t spend that”…

Romney is a decent man. Headed and saved the Olympics without pay; served as Governor of Mass. without pay.He wants to help America, I believe, not line his pockets. I wish I could say the same for Obama/Biden. They have become millionaires on the public teat. Neither of them did an honest days work in their lives.

When he gets elected, another office he needs to dissolve is the department of freeloaders.

I can just hear what Obysmal and his pet chimp Joey are saying: “What a chump Romney is. Doesn’t he know he can just make the taxpayers pay the bill? Har har.”
The sooner these people go, the better.

What a major character difference between Romney and that gutter trash in the white house and blair house….Mitt has principals…has morals, has the burning desire to save our country, whereas Oboobie TwoTuu and Plugs want to finish the job they started of destroying America…..
