That's the biggest rushpublican lie that needs to get punctured. Rover looks like he took his billionaire buddies to the cleaners and it'll be interesting to see the long term residuals of this. Sadly I suspect the big money will be back in 2014 but nowhere near the volume we just saw. Will Rover be the one with his hands on the biggest bundle? Stay tuned.

The wild spending of the SuperPacs and Team Willard really contrast to the "fiscal conservative" mantra they tried to peddle they know how to make and save money. Sure doesn't look like it here. If anything, Willard was operating a welfare program for unemployed ex-dubya exiles. Be assured if he had gotten near the treasury the doors would have been flung open and the defecits would soar (and be hidden as usual). These goons made their money off the backs of others...that's what vulture capitalism is and we just escaped having our government become a victim...
