Mitt Romney hasn't stopped raking in cash for his quiet presidential campaign. But where is that money coming from, and how will news of his shady cash flow play out with voters? Lawrence discussed the issue with Paul Goldman, former chairman of the Virginia Democratic Party and the co-author of the Politico op-ed "Why Romney Can't Win."
Why Romney can't win in 2012

Let's look at this logically then. If Romney can't win then Obama must win right? Bachmann can't win. T-Paw can't win. Huntsman can't win. Its looking like Perry can't win.
Obama's best chance now is to just bring all the troops home. Transfer the savings to Homeland Security and special operations. Because if he brings them home then he must beef up domestic security.
I don't think the American people are stupid. They know this bad economy is not all Obama's fault. I'm just concerned they will get caught up in all the noise.
Draw a line threw that name on the list
Go Barack!!!!
Rick Perry cannot be president for 3 Constitutional reasons. First, by stating that he will make and interpret law based on his religious beliefs, he violates the First Amendment and therefore cannot swear to uphold the Constitution. Second, by acknowledging Jesus christ as his King, he violates Article 1, Section 9. Third, he was not born in the United States. He was born in Texas.
12 million, you say from Romney's secret donor. Well, Obama received 86 million during the last quarter. Wonder where that money came from? Do you think it came from the 40+% that don't pay any income tax? Quite a few are living off your tax dollars. Maybe it came from Obama's secret donors. Do you think the poor people of this country are dishing out that money? With so many unemployed and losing their jobs and homes, why would he be receiving so much money? Are we that ignorant or is there some other mechanism at work here? Now, I know quite a few of you think that Obama is truly trying to help you and save this country, but he is only a puppet in a much larger diabolical purpose, which will destroy the freedoms we have in this country. The same diabolical purpose has been used before and ruined the lives and futures of millions unwilling to acknowledge the truth. Don't be fooled by organization names that on the surface sound like they are dedicated to the betterment of the human race. The underlying intent is to make you a subject and taking away your freedom. One man and very wealthy has dedicated his life to becoming very wealthy and changing the governments of not just this country, but many others as well. He has been successful in bringing down some of these countries financially. The United States has been his biggest obstacle in accomplishing his diabolical mission. So who are these donors for Obama that helped him receive 86 million during the last quarter for his campaign? It's August 2011 now. They are probably organizations supported by this man. Don't forget to read the last section.
George Soros is one of the most powerful men on earth. A New York hedge fund manager, he has amassed a personal fortune estimated at about $13 billion (as of 2009). His company, Soros Fund Management, controls at least another $25 billion in investor assets. Since 1979, Soros's foundation network -- whose flagship is the Open Society Institute (OSI) -- has dispensed more than $5 billion to a multitude of organizations whose objectives are consistent with those of Soros. With assets of $1.93 billion as of 2008, OSI alone donates scores of millions of dollars annually to these various groups. Following is a sampling of the major agendas advanced by groups that Soros and OSI support financially. Listed under each category heading are a few OSI donees fitting that description.

The Open Society Institute is not the only vehicle by which George Soros works to reshape America's political landscape. Indeed, Soros was the prime mover in the creation of the so-called "Shadow Democratic Party," or "Shadow Party," in 2003. This term refers to a nationwide network of labor unions, non-profit activist groups, and think tanks whose agendas are ideologically to the left, and which are engaged in campaigning for the Democrats. This network's activities include fundraising, get-out-the-vote drives, political advertising, opposition research, and media manipulation.
The Shadow Party was conceived and organized principally by George Soros, Hillary Clinton and Harold McEwan Ickes -- all identified with the Democratic Party left. Other key players included:
continued:
To develop the Shadow Party as a cohesive entity, Harold Ickes undertook the task of building a 21st-century version of the Left's traditional alliance of the "oppressed" and "disenfranchised." By the time Ickes was done, he had created or helped to create six new groups, and had co-opted a seventh called MoveOn.org. Together, these seven groups constituted the administrative core of the newly formed Shadow Party:
These organizations, along with the many leftist groups with which they collaborate, have played a major role in helping Soros advance his political and social agendas.
According to Richard Poe, co-author (with David Horowitz) of the 2006 book The Shadow Party:

During WWII, George Soros' father was a Nazi sympathizer in Hungary who helped the Germans round up Jews for the Death camps.
The People of America think of George Soros as a Finance wizard when in fact he destroyed U.K and France. This has been his plan since the fall of Hitler he was a Jew that turned his own people in.
As a young man, in Budapest, George Soros was a courier for the Jewish Council, the Nazi-established and Nazi-run organization that ran the Jewish community. The Jewish Council was ultimately controlled by Adolf Eichmann, the man known as the “architect of the Holocaust,” who was in charge of the mass deportation of the Jews of Poland and Hungary to the extermination camps. Eichmann arrived in Budapest in early 1944, to take charge of the elimination of the Hungarian Jews. Before Eichmann left, 430,000 Hungarian Jews had been put to their death.
In his 1965 memoir of the wartime, Masquerade—Dancing Around Death in Nazi-Occupied Hungary, George Soros’ father, Tivadar Soros, devoted an entire chapter to the Jewish Council, and his son’s involvement.
“When systematic persecution of the Jews began,” Tivadar Soros wrote,“it was carried out not by the Germans, nor by their Hungarian lackeys, but—most astonishingly—by the Jews themselves. One of the first things the Germans did was to form a so-called Jewish Council, consisting of the leaders of the Jewish community. Council members were made personally responsible for the implementation of the various German measures relating to the Jewish population. As a reward, they, their families, and those who worked for them were exempted, at least at the beginning, from these restrictions… The Jewish Council carried out the German wishes far more conscientiously than the Germans could themselves.”
Tivadar Soros described his son George’s role.“As Jews couldn’t go to school any more and their teachers couldn’t teach, they were ordered to report to council headquarters. The children were enlisted as couriers under the command of their teachers. My younger son, George, also became a courier. On the second day, he returned home at seven in the evening.
"‘What did you do all day?’‘Mostly nothing. But this afternoon I was given some notices to deliver to various addresses.’‘Did you read what they said?’‘I even brought one home.’ He handed me a small slip of paper, with a typewritten message [a summons].‘Do you know what this means?’ I asked him.‘I can guess,’ he replied, with great seriousness.‘They’ll be interned.’”
Tivadar Soros observed that George was “clearly disappointed that I wouldn’t let him work anymore. He was beginning to enjoy his career as a courier; it was all a big adventure.” George Soros went on to adopt the identity of the godson of a mid-level Hungarian official, responsible for the confiscation of Jewish property of wealthy Jews shipped off to Auschwitz. In at least two television interviews, in 1994 and 1998, Soros freely admitted to his Nazi collaboration, and declared that he felt no guilt over his actions, or over the extermination of nearly a half million of his fellow Hungarian Jews.
Indeed, in his own words, in his introduction to his father’s book, George Soros admitted,“It is a sacreligious thing to say, but these ten months [of the Nazi occupation] were the happiest times of my life… We led an adventurous life and we had fun together.”
Soros has hated the United States from get go he is the one that put Obama in the Whitehouse and is the one running it have you ever wondered why Obama needs a teleprompter because George Soros has his speeched written.
Soros want to destroy the United States in order to get a One World Order he was involved with the Circle of commitment
sixpick, its a shame you posted all that for nothing.
it is the republican party who wants to take freedoms from the american people. they want to take freedoms from women like birth control and health care and abortion. they want to take voting rights from, or make it much more difficult for, those who are most likely to vote democratic. the republicans love regulations on the poor and the vulnerable, the disabled, the minorities; they don't want any regulations on wall street or big oil, no regulations on people who have money and influence.
so the republicans are all for freedoms for the rich and the influential. the average joe, who can't do anything for a republican in a campaign doesn't count, so they want to regulate him all day long.
say what you want about the democrats. they are still fighting for personal freedoms for all of us, the republicans only care about the rich.
the rich could use a few regulations, not that they would follow them. look where we are.
Suzzette-3294003 You're being lied to. I'm a registered Democrat and I still have a job, thank goodness.
Could you tell me the freedoms the Republicans want to take from the people?
You can get all the birth control pills you want. Just pay for them yourself.
You have to show your medicaid card in order to receive benefits, and they can make it down to the social services department to get the free benefits, so everyone of them have cards and buses to carry them to the voting booth. We have to take off work and drive our own cars, because we choose to work for a living. Almost 50% of the people in this country receive government checks.
The Democrats and Republicans that are working and paying taxes are completely supporting the poor, some disabled, which I support taking care of and quite a few that have much nicer cars than I can afford and are on permanent vacation. I work with them each day of the year and I can tell you many are more able than I am.
What regulations are you talking about? Be specific
I'm a registered Democrat as I said and I have to vote Republican, which I don't really care for, either, but it is the less evil.
I don't know how you can say the Republicans only care for the rich. Can you give me any examples, please.
Now some of your Democrat Representatives are very rich. What have they done for you?
The Democrats have been in control since 2006 in Congress, and became in complete control in 2007 of both houses. Bush was a lame duck the last two years of his presidency. Translated: Democrats could do anything they wanted since 2006. What have they done for you or anyone you know. It's kind of like, "Socialism is not for the Socialist, it's for the people".
Keep in mind the president isn't in complete control unless he has complete control of both houses. Democrats have had no competition since 2006. That means the Republicans didn't count. What have they done for you?
If you notice states controlled by Democrats are going bankrupt, even cities controlled by Democrats are going bankrupt. This country is bankrupt.
Democrats without competition, I mean the republican votes didn't count, haven't done anything to make things better for you.
What benfits do you think we should add to that?
I'm getting a little sick of working all the time and watching carefree people loaf around all day. They can drive to a local Sweepstakes gambling location and sit in front of that computer all day and gamble the money they received at the first of the month away, but when they walk into the doctors office, it's with a cane and a slump in there posture, and of course a lot of pain they are suffering.
I was told by one, just last week, "I don't work for the government, I've learned to make the government work for me."
Tell me who has the better chance of making something of themselves, a poor young person that can get a free education, free breakfast, lunch and supper along with a free place to live or a middle class young person who has to pay for his/her education themself.
I'm feel confident you didn't read the above article. Let me say, I feel it is our responsibilty to help those that can't help themselves, but for those that are just living off the government and are perfectly able to help themselves should be required to do so.
I say I was for abortion as a young man, but as I grew older, I became aware of true life. I don't know if you are young, old, lesbian, straight, bi-sexual or whatever. I don't care. It's your business, not mine and it's your choice, not mine. Therefore, I have no problem with your business.
I have many more comments on this Last Word site. You may learn something. Maybe I will learn something as well.
SixPick: Blah-Blah. Lots of words. Nothing to say. You are a tool of your Wall Street masters.
