Busing in supporters sounds desperate to me.

This is not news nor is it unusual.

George H. W. Bush sent over government paid employees in 1992.

So now creating a grassroots network among College Republicans is a bad thing?
Don't tell Karl Rove.

I wonder if someone sent a bus for McCain if he could attend the meeting?

Or could the bloggers send a bus across the room to pick up Rudy so he could come spend a few minutes with them?

I would happily pay for both buses.

Everybody does this, but its not really gonna make a dent. The cpac vote will likely have thousands of participants, romneys few dozen college supporters will barely make a dent.

This comment is from the link you provided with this article. I think the part about executive experience is so true:

I like Giuliani, but his personal life is a mess-ala Bill Clinton. McCain is tired. Romney's resume is impressive, and it intrigues me that the Democrats and media are focusing so much effort right now to bury him early. If he can make it out of the primaries, he will be a formidable opponent, especially against Obama and Clinton who have absolutely zero experience as executive of any type of organization, let alone the United States. Compare that to Romney's experience running multi billion dollar companies, the Olympics and the state of Mass., and it is a no brainer who is more qualified-

Both Romney and Rudy have so much more executive experience than any of the leading Dem candidates!

Apparently this is not the frst time Romney has done this. He pays for crowds of supporters!
