Obama says forgo wedding/shower gifts and...

...donate to me instead. Seems kind of tacky.

Plus this takes money out of the private sector economy.
Will BO reimburse stores that lose money?

I'm not sure if this is a clever idea or an act of desperation. The campaign will need every dollar to overcome the lack of success.

The Obama campaign should adapt the 'Star Trek' motto to say "shamelessly going where no man has gone before."

Perhaps this article explains the reason best... Obama campaign sees red in May money totals

Each time I think he cannot sink any lower I find out I'm wrong.

Some people are really passionate about presidential politics. Plus, the campaign funds are spent in the private sector -- jobs, busses, media spending.

We'll get a good luck at the world of the SuperPac this year. I think it bodes ill for the long term, but will help media companies. Sadly enough, campaign spending too often goes for horrifically negative campaign ads in which a kernel of truth is twisted beyond all recognition. The people giving that money see it as an investment. Too often it is a cynical investment in which they expect economic returns, not necessarily a better America for all.

Got a birthday coming up? Can I have it please? You see, I don't have one, and I'd like to have yours. It's only fair since I don't have a birthday that you give me yours.

Fortunately, Romney will save us.
