A senior Obama campaign strategist, briefing reporters on condition of anonymity, said earlier in the day that Romney would best his earlier total — and predicted that the Republican's hauls, plus unrestricted super-PAC cash, would mean "we're going to be the first incumbent outspent."The super-PAC phenomenon has been a recurring source of handwringing at Obama HQ in Chicago. Aides say they worry that those deep-pockets will unleash an unprecedented blitz of negative ads—and that comparable entities on the Democratic side lack the cash to counter effectively. "I think [Romney's] going to have a $100 million month this month between he and the RNC," the strategist said. "I think you are going to see another huge month from him." "Given Sen. Kerry outraised Bush two to one in the first couple of months after he won the nomination, I think Romney is going to continue to have big months. Combined with that with the super PAC stuff, we're going to be the first incumbent outspent," the strategist said. Yahoo News Now since it was a certain progressive on this board crying to the heavens that Scott Walker only won because he spent more money than Barrett just 2 weeks ago, one would assume he would be shitting in his pants right now because Romney has more money to spend than his guy Obama... Wouldn't you agree? And one would further conclude that this election isn't going as well for the President as the Bloomberg poll would suggest... Especially since Bloomberg is the only poll showing Obama with a substantial lead, and that the two TOP polling services actually show Obama behind Romney in General Election polls.
