I just got an email from Barak. He says; "I just got back from Iowa, where we are being outspent 2 to 1 on the air." I wonder if that is true?

We expect Mitt Romney and the Republicans to outspend us.
What I will not abide is getting outspent by a margin that negates all the hard work our volunteers are doing -- talking to voters, knocking on doors, making calls.
We are in control of that outcome, but our time to close the gap is dwindling. After three consecutive months of being significantly outraised, it couldn't be more urgent.
What are the facts?
The Demoncrats have raised some $490.6, and spent $404.9 through Jun this year. The Republicans, $437.7 & $314.5 respectively. The Dems have raised in Jun '12 $69.1 and spent $78.7. The Repubs, $92.5 & $46.2 respectively.

And he also has all the Muslim countries and other American enemies supplying him with cash. They want to watch America go under. And Obama is the man for that.

What do these articles say to you? To me they are trying to paint an overall picture of the "forest" by only painting one "tree". Each of these articles focus on specifics & not over all campaigns. Plus they only cover spending in May & Jun. The NYT coverage was by year, this one from Jan through Jun. Seems like you are relying on cherry picked info.
"The 2012 presidential election is the first in which outside groups empowered by the Supreme Court's 2010 Citizen's United decision will play a major role." This statement is an outright lie! Unions have been in the thick of elections from the beginning of unions.
I didn't give my opinion one way or another. I posted two links to get people interested in researching the information themselves, and not rely on a blog that doesn't offer any evidence to its claims.
To bad so sad! (If it is true)
Frankly I think he's spending a lot of our money regardless..
I don't suppose he is counting all the TV time he gets as President in his figures.
Four years ago he had an audience. Today the facts speak for themself. Words are good but only if you can show a connection.
His actions speak clearly to his belief system, not his words. Iowa sees it.
It is clear for anyone who has walked this journey the past 4 years. It is not about the individual, President Obama. It is his policies and his inability to lead.
BTW He is lying through his teeth.
Didn't BO boast he was going to raise 1 BILLION dollars for his campaign?
NOBAMA 2012
Gee, what happened to all those loyal supporters, Barak?
Maybe you should have another cocktail and chill. Maybe you could even take a minute and learn what the word budget means. Just a thought.
or wherever.
job. Fortunately he loves to campaign.....he has never stopped.
I hope he never has to campaign another day after Nov. 2012, because if he is
elected, he will be flying around the country promoting himself and basking
in the applause.
Out of office. There will be plenty of time to argue the future of our country's destiny but
right now it's very existence as we know it is in peril. Buzzy
