and not being able to pay staffers their bonuses? Politicians often spends YEARS after the election is over trying to retire a campaign debt. I'm supremely confident Romney will be able to pay everyone eventually.

Mitt's not losing because of his staff, he's losing because he's a shitty candidate. Paying the BEST people a million dollars and hour won't fix that.
