Mitt Romney: The First Rent-A-Politician

Many Republicans, like Scott Walker, are obviously bought and owned by corporate powerhouses like the Koch Brothers and other supporters of groups like ALEC.

But not Mitt Romeny!

He's set himself apart with his campaign plan of Rent-A-Politician:



Seriously, though, it shows how little the Republicans care for you after they get your vote:
In crucial swing states across America, the Obama re-election campaign, backed by the Democratic party, is already in full battle mode with more than 200 offices open, staff hired and thousands of election events underway.

By contrast, all four Republican candidates – including the increasingly dominant frontrunner Mitt Romney – are so shackled by their internal battle over the party's nomination that they have actually been shutting down operations in critical states at the end of each primary.

In the classic swing state of New Hampshire, Romney closed his only office immediately after the January 10 primary. To the astonishment of local Obama organisers, a "for lease" sign was hung outside the Romney headquarters four days before the vote was held. Obama, by contrast, has seven offices up and running in the state, with more than 25 paid staff.
Yeah, they really care about their supporters concerns, right? That's why they're so accessible, at least until they get what they want out of you.

  1. All across west central, and northwest Wisconsin, there are a ton of formerly empty buildings being used to put up Walker campaign signs.

    A small building just down the street is plastered with "Walker."


    I've seen no signs of life in these buildings, though.
