RE: Well, it looks like money can buy anything.
Which makes me wonder about American voters in general... with the Internet, Talk Radio and so many blogs, and news outlets available for your without you having to leave your house, why do you need someone to spend millions of dollars to help you make up your mind?
Can’t you make your mind up for yourself?

This hits the nail on the head. The truth is most people pay very little attention to politics until right before an election. They believe what they see on TV and the media and the experts tell them who is the one to vote for.
Every new state the campaigns roll into, Romney is already there running those ads on radio and TV 24/7 turning them off on any of the other candidates.
The other guys have an uphill climb and not enough cash to rebut the Romney ads.
Rick or Newt may be able to grab attention and poll well until the Romney machine rolls them over and out. It keeps happening over and over. The deck is stacked and each of these states seem to have some little thing that comes up to benefit Romney when the delegates get doled out. Ohio is just another one. Funny how we hear very little about what little thing will benefit Romney until the primary is over.
The average Ameican today probably uses the Internet to play video games, access porn sites and otherwise waste their time.
Instead of Talk Radio, they listen to the Sports, aweful music and comical idiots like Imus.
They get their news from CBS, NBC, CBS and CNN between watching “Dancing with the Stars” the Superbowl and Reality shows.
What do we expect?
