Mitt for President in 337,705


How many campaigns would it take to equal the latest spending bill?

The press had a field day with this number: 42.3 million. That is the amount of personal savings that Gov. Romney used to launch his campaign into national prominence in ’08. He also raised over 62 million dollars from fundraising. It is hard to imagine that campaigns have become so expensive. Hillary Clinton relied on 138 million and Obama won using 140 million. It’s hard to fathom the size of these numbers. The media chose to highlight the 42 million that Romney infused into his campaign as an incomprehensible number to most Americans in an attempt to reduce his support. Obviously, that amount was no small sum. But, compared to 3,550,000,000,000 trillion dollars (Socialistus Maximus Governmentus Controlus Spend-a-thonus) how can we put in into perspective?
42.3 million vs. 3.55 trillion

That would equal:
83,924 more Mitt Romney Campaigns.

And since campaigns are only ever 4 years… He would have to keep going until…

Mitt for President 337,705 A.D. !!
