(this must be pre or post the rally) but it was still lame compared to Obama. I don't see how anyone can compare Romney's rallies and think he is going to win. Anybody But Obama votes will only go so far. If your side isn't out in droves at your rally, I don't see how they are really going to pull you through.

Having all those signs up and commercials, they are just wasting their own money when they should use it to really help this country.

Thank you for saying that it has been on my mind every election season. It seems like such a colossal waste of money that could be used to benefit people in other ways.

it's still a horse race. For a guy who's supposedly close behind Obama in the polls, Romney's supporters don't seem to be trying that hard to show up at his rallies.
