the Obama campaign has been poor-mouthing for months in fundraising emails to supporters, begging for $50, $20, even $5. In these sad-sack emails, Obama’s people morosely say that they’re resigned to being outspent by the Romney money machine in November.
If only it were true.
The Washington Post's Ed Rogers crunched some numbers the other day. Here’s what he came up with:
If Rogers’s math is correct—and I haven’t seen anyone challenging him yet—then what we’re likely to see down the road is basically what we’re already seeing now in Ohio and other battleground states: a well-financed Romney operation that’s still outspent by pro-Obama forces.

If only it were true.
The Washington Post's Ed Rogers crunched some numbers the other day. Here’s what he came up with:
To date, the Democratic National Committee, the Obama campaign and Obama super PACs have raised $471,400,000. This does not include at least $400 million that the labor unions have pledged to spend on Obama’s behalf. The Romney campaign, Republican National Committee and Romney super PACs have raised $264,223,126—and much of that was spent during the Republican primary contest.
If Rogers’s math is correct—and I haven’t seen anyone challenging him yet—then what we’re likely to see down the road is basically what we’re already seeing now in Ohio and other battleground states: a well-financed Romney operation that’s still outspent by pro-Obama forces.

+1This is slightly off topic, but why do libs seem so... RABID about attacking republicans/conservatives? Pointing out something and beating that dead horse into pate are two very different things.reply
