Ryan Not Exactly a Cash Cow for Romney


 
NEWSER) – The Romney campaign would like you to believe that picking Paul Ryan as the VP candidate has resulted in a flurry of enthusiastic donations to his cause. The campaign today announced that Romney has raised $10,157,947 online since unveiling his running mate, Politico reports. But Alexander Abad-Santos writes in The Atlantic that if you take a cursory look at the math, that "bump" looks kinda lame.

Romney and the RNC raised around $100 million last month, he explains, which averages to about $3 million per day. So raising $10 million over Ryan's six days on the trail actually represents a slowdown. When John McCain unveiled Sarah Palin, they hit $10 million in half that time. Still, there is one silver lining: Some 68% of the online donors in the past six days have been newcomers, which could indicate that people are excited about Ryan even if they're not giving much. Full analysis here.

Poor DUmmies are running scared.
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

They're right about Ryan not being a "cash cow" for Romney.  Obama, on the other hand, has been.   :-)
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

John C Calhoun, "Disquisition on Government", 1840

Great! For just $3 you get a chance to have dinner with the Obama cow.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far away, the libs used to talk about the anointed one amassing 1 billion in campaign contributions. The crowds swarming around owebuma consist mostly of flies now.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Yep, next week it will be send in just one of your Social Security monthly checks. Then, what you spend on a week of groceries. Moochelle says the children are all fat, how about sending in your kid's lunch money for a month.

The racists just are not generous enough with the money their Messiah lets them keep.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.
