This is a reflection of just how damaged the democrat brand really is.

But, but, but....spare me your fake rage, this isn't a big deal because both sides do it and both sides know they will earn back that money later. Please tell me what new fake outrage you are planning next, I would love to know.

Being they don't turn themselves in willfully as defects on warranty, Americans will have to do this on election day.

Per CNN website.....

Obama:

Total Raised, year to date: $432,197,459.00
Total Spent: $345,723,446.00
Ad Spending: $234.3 Million

Romney:

Total Raised, year to date: $279,343,000.00
Total Spent: $228,921,635.00
Ad Spending: $91.9 Million
It's amazing that the race is so close given how much more Obama has spent and that he is incumbent. Were I working on the Obama campaign this would be troubling.

I find that total almost impossible to believe.

I'm sorry to hear you didnt learn much in school because most people would realise that taking out loans at this period of time, would equate to needing to raise money later to pay it back, rather than using it to campaign on other elections, whereas the GOP will have money left and will be able to raise money to add to what they have.

But you want to pretend this is good news or somehow its the same..

I give you a F- in economics..

LIE.. any such action would be required to be disclosed on election financial disclosures.

I challenge you to backup this statement.

I am sorry this whole campaign thing must be new to you....maybe you should go back to school and take some political science classes, maybe that would help you understand better.....or you could just stick to things you "hear."
