Newt responding to Romney’s attack on him that choosing as goal $2.50 per gallon was “pandering to the American people”:
As Herman Cain justly observed , that’s not “pandering”, but setting goals and showing leadership, things that Romney is incapable to do.
Mitt is too bound to his Wall Street rich donors, who have spent more than $200 million on his campaign since 2008 ...
Romney’s six largest campaign contribution sources in 2011 were Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, Credit Suisse, Citigroup and Bank of America. He has also taken huge amounts from firms such as HIG Capital, Blackstone Group, Elliott Management, Citadel Investment and Bain Capital. 91% of Romney’s donors donated more than $100,000 per head.
People, watch this: More of Mitt Romney’s lies in debates and adds debunked!!!
“Mitt is too bound to his Wall Street rich donors, who have spent more than $200 million on his campaign since 2008”
SINCE first setting eyes on the White House, Mitt Romney and his backers
have spent more than $US200 million - including $44.6
million of his fortune - on a seven-year quest for the Republican
presidential nomination.An analysis of Mr Romney’s campaign funding shows the depth of his
investment in trying to win the nation’s highest office, how his
supporters circumvented US federal campaign laws with huge, back-channel
donations years before he declared his candidacy, and to whom he might
owe favours if he wins.
In this, his second run for the presidency, the Romney
campaign has so far spent $54 million to January 31, according to
reports filed with the Federal Election Commission. It has been shadowed
by a pro-Romney ‘’super’’ political action committee that has spent at
least $US32 million.’’When you look at his operation, you end up with two words: Romney, Inc. This is a highly sophisticated, far-reaching money operation designed to
curry favour with politicians and local and state political
organisations, and it’s financed by donors who are bound to have great
influence with Mitt Romney if he’s elected president.’’ - Fred Wertheimer, the dean of Washington campaign finance watchdogs
