There are over five million registered voters in Virginia. How difficult is it to get 15,000 - 20,000 signatures?

That’s less than 1/2 of one percent.

Money. It takes lots and lots of money. And neither candidate could come up with enough to buy a spot on the ballot. But I would never expect you to understand a thing like that.

But you do repeat almost word for word, Carl Rove, who was on FOX a few minutes ago saying how good a job Romney did on following the “rules”.

I believe that in Indiana there has to be X number in each congressional district....much more difficult!!

Have you ever passed a petition? It isn't as easy as you seem to think.

Perry and Newt turned in more than 10,000 but less than that were alid...it the way I understand it.

Perry turned in almost 12,000...more than Newt turned in.
