will Romney bring it up in a debate? &/or, will it be campaign ad fodder for Romney?
both.
and release his college transcripts day before next debate.
Sounds just like the millions of $25 prepaid gift debit card contributions bought by Soros and the Saudis in 2008.
they will just laugh it off and say Romney is desperate ,same old answers
Absolutely! Plain and simple money laundering. Example: stimulus funds to public and private unions right back to Obama campaign bucks.
Whether or not it gets covered will depend on how the press sees the election going. Something may not really pop on this till after the next debate because if he stumbles again as badly as he did last week, all bets are off simply because while the press wants him to win, they do not want to be seen entirely on the side of the guy who lost...they lose all credibility if that happens.
Along the way recently, there have been some cracks in the dam. Unless ocommie can plug them, and he will get a full press treatment by the next moderator to do so, he will be toast. Not only will he lose, but if he loses 50% of his media support, he will lose as badly as did mclame. Romney better be on his A+ skill next one because if he wins, the election will be his to lose. He would have to have an epic fail in the third one to lose if he wins the next debate on usually the home court, foreign policy, of a sitting president.
Your donor information is more valuable than your paltry donation.
All that foreign aid coming back via donations. What a racket. BTW, what happens to that unspent campaign cash. How long can he hang on to it when he loses.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy
Make the DNC turn it over to apply to the National Debt and then prosecute Obama’s campaign team for illegal fund raising methods!

There was a “chance for a dinner with Paul Ryan, donate $3” e-mail also. What about that?
Actually, it's even more people than that. They reported 1.8 million donors.
35k people gave an average of $2,600, while just over 1.7 million people gave an average of $53. Half the campaign's haul came from people giving around the maximum amount and half from people who don't have to be disclosed.
Contributions under $200 don't have to be disclosed, but the campaign still has to keep track of the donor's name, in case subsequent donations push their contribution over the reporting threshold.
For contributions under $50, however, the campaign doesn't even have to keep track of the donor's name. It is effectively considered a "petty cash" donation. A person could theoretically make 10 $49 donations and never be reported, even though their total contributions are above the FEC's reporting threshold.
With an average donation of $53 from small donors, Obama has A LOT of donors who will never be disclosed and whose names aren't even known to the campaign.
Most of that info from here: Windfall: Obama Raises $181 Million, Only Around 2% of Donations Reportable.
But, one thing to keep in mind: The Obama campaign has turned off name and address verification. You can put any name or address you want on the online form. As long as it is a valid credit card number, it will go through.
This opens the door for several forms of election fraud:
I suspect that some of these issues are what will be hitting the news in the next 24 hours. The question is whether the Kneepad Media will cover it. If not, Ryan and Romney should figure out a way to insert it into the debate. That will get it past the Kneepad Media's filter.
Wash. Rinse. Repeat.
Thank you for a more complete explanation. I was simply doing back of the napkin minimum numbers.
I’ve heard about these “BIG STORIES” before only to see them fizzle out.

There would only be a scandal if it was publicized. And it ain’t gonna happen with hussein’s media whores.
...and George
How bad will the Obama Foreign Donor Scandal Be?-—Depends how much of the truth comes out. If just part of it would come out it would be monstrous and would explain Obama’s bow to the Saudi Arabian king (the protector of Mecca and Medina).
