What is sad is that we really need every dollar we can get to defeat Obama, and the local republican’s that have rented a space for the republican headquarters here in town, are actually charging rent!!! Money that could be used to help put Romney in the Whitehouse, but these greedy local republican business owners are taking money from the campaign instead of donating an already vacant building that won’t ever get a tenant till well after the election and the economy improves.
