Is there a possible Obama polling lead large enough to cause Mitt's checkwriters to say "forget it...he's not worth the investment at this stage..."?
I'm just wondering if they'd decide to triage the campaign and focus, say, on preserving the Boehnerhaus?

(8,954 posts)If Romney continues on a fast path to self-destruction, and President Obama has it safely in the bag at some point in the not-too-distant-future, perhaps available resources should be redirected to help toward winning progressive House and Senate races. For starters, let's send Cantor and Bachmann packing.

(30,439 posts)The latest Fox News poll showing Obama with good leads in VA, FL and OH are definitely not something Romney's backers want to see.
Rich assholes like that are very stingy with their money. They view Romney as an investment. If they know the stock will be worth zero in November, they won't invest.

(2,424 posts)I want them to double down. I want them to pour so much money down the sinkhole, that they will be the ones that initiate a political movement to implement spending caps on campaigns.
I want it to be so painful that the repeal of Citizens United will be "their" idea.
