Think if even a fraction of that money went to GOTV efforts vs whereever the heck put it what a difference could have been made?
Rove = Maddoff
Exactly
$300,000,000 divided by 100,000,000 registered Republicans is $3 each, and multiply that by 2 (Romney campaign + Rove SuperPAC) for $6 each. If they had just given that money to the state parties and county party committees around the country for GOTV efforts, we’d be way ahead. In our county, that would be say $50,000. Imagine what a small county party could have done with that kind of money. Instead we raised $5,000 total on our own, and actually had to buy all our own Romney signs and bumper stickers and then hope to sell them and print our own voter lists (because the experts in Washington don’t believe in low-level campaigning).
