Obama's Excessive Spending Worries Some Democrats?

~ The Rebel ~ 2012/07/23 21:48:04
The Obama campaign has spent $15.3 million on polling alone in this election
cycle — in a pattern of high spending that has some Democrats
concerned.

According to The Wall Street Journal, 778 campaign staffers
for President Barack Obama received payroll checks in June, accounting for $2.9
million in wages before tax costs, records show. To date, the Obama camp has
spent more than $25 million on payroll.

It spent $38.2 million on media
buys last month, bringing its total this election to more than $72 million, The
Journal reports.

About $2.6 million was spent on polling in June alone.
In addition, some $4 million has been invested in polling this election, with
the Democratic National Party adding $11.3 million on opinion surveys since the
start of 2011.

That means, the Obama campaign, in conjunction with the
DNP, has so far $15.3 on polling alone.

    How much deficit spending does it take to worry a democrat? I didn't think that was possible.

    With his record, the market price per vote is prohibitive. Polling and triangulation can only get him so far, and absent one of those Neuralyzer gizmos from Men in Black to erase our collective memories, he's toast...
