The problem is there isn’t a level playing field. Romney happens to be wealthy and he is using his wealth to buy a lot of expensive influential ad time to spread propoganda and lies about his alleged conservatism. A lot of people vote base on 30 and 60 second sound bites (Never underestimate the ignorance of the American voter). That’s what is called trying to buy the election.
I disagree. The playing field is level, but the players aren't. That's the way it should be.
The candidates are free to bring all their money to the campaign, and people are free (within the restraints of McCain-Feingold) to donate money to the campaign. The fact that those amounts of money are different between the candidates is not an indication of anything unfair.
Mitt has money precisely because he's been a very good leader. If he was a bad leader, he wouldn't have all his self-made wealth.
The accusation that he's spreading "propaganda and lies" is your opinion, and you're entitled to that. Suffice it to say that many, many conservative people disagree with your accusation.

OK, so you are slamming Mitt for actually campaigning with his campaign money. That's what I thought.
Hey, every candidate makes 30 and 60 second commercials and throws out sound bites to the media. That's called campaigning, and they have to do that to get elected. As distasteful as it may be, that's the way it's done. Mitt's no more guilty for campaigning than any other candidate is.
Do you suppose any of the other candidates wouldn't spend the money if they had it? Do you think they'd say, "Well, yes, I want to win, but not if it means spending a lot of money."
I sure don't believe that for a second.
Look, Hillary has a nearly endless pile of money for this election, from that treasonous socialist George Soros. Do you really believe anyone can beat her without spending a lot of money?
If I ever doubt the ignorance of the voters all I have to do is read your posts. Of course, Romney had to spend money to get the name recognition that McCain with twenty some years being on TV every Sunday and all the puff piece in the MSM. If you can't figure that out you really are ignorant.
I wonder who's to blame for that? See post #58.
“Romney...lies about his alleged conservatism.”
You are lying.
