Obama Trails Romney Again in Battle for Campaign Cash
The New York Times ^ | July 9, 2012 | NICHOLAS CONFESSORE

In the battle for political cash, President Obama is finding himself in an unaccustomed place during the final months of the 2012 campaign: he is losing.

Mitt Romney and the Republican National Committee easily outraised the formidable Obama money machine for the second month in a row. A nonstop schedule of high-dollar events around the country brought in $106 million during June to Mr. Obama’s $71 million, giving him and his party four times the cash on hand that it had just three months ago.

The link piece is precisely correct. Obama and his allies will prop up the myth that he's the financial underdog as it works best for his campaign's theme against the "1%" and Romney.

Obama's supposed financial disadvantage in this campaign season is an insidious lie, a put on, a fairytale. It must be dismantled, and would be, in an unbiased media.

Remember, this is the "billion dollar" Obama. Expect his side to have a 2 or 3 to 1 financial advantage.

Factually, Romney and the Republicans haven't much chance of matching Obama dollar-for-dollar and need very dime, nickel and penny that can be pulled together.

This explains why Hussien went to France last week to fund raise. That tells me the spigot is drying up for the dems and Hussien.

My prediction is that Romney will out raise Hussien from here on out.

Why?

This election is only going to be decided in perhaps 10 states at most.

The rest are pretty much locked for one side or the other.

“Plus also Obama has lost just about everyone who would support him.”

95% of black voters disagree.

"Romney has much, much more money than Obama. Obama’s stash is EMPTY."

Which is why Bobo has already told the downticket races, you ain't gettin' $h-t from me this time around.
