New video from Newt’s Super PAC: “When Mitt Romney Came to Town”

So tell me, oh wise one, what organization does Romney have? His paid workers? Oh geez.

Are you serious? You know, I suggest you not respond to my comments unless you’re a masochist who enjoys being squished like a bug.

To give one example, in Virginia where Romney and Paul got on the ballot but Newt and Perry failed, he had exactly one paid worker in charge of the many volunteers who began to get signatures in August. Volunteers then called each person on the list to be sure the names were legit so they would not risk having them tossed as ineligible.

Meanwhile other campaigns paid people $10.00 per signature on the petitions. Newt’s paid worker committed fraud. Newt also failed to qualify for the Missouri and Ohio ballots. His organization is a mess. You think he can beat Obama like this?

psssst. This is for Midwestprincesse:

The Romney machine turned out so many people that the venue had to be changed to a larger one, and even then there was not just a full house but a second, overflow crowd in a separate room. The local police were called to control traffic, and the event site was marked with a truck festooned in flags and Romney signs, bathed in a specially installed spotlight. Inside, alongside the candidate, was a bonus attraction, South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, flown in for the weekend.

This is the way a front-running campaign is supposed to look and feel, and Team Romney is playing the part in the run-up to Tuesday’s primary. It has New Hampshire organized the way a Chicago alderman organizes his neighborhood, with an elaborate phone network to keep supporters plugged in. Thousands of calls went out in recent days to be sure backers weren’t wandering away.

Scores of monitors will be at vote-counting stations Tuesday night to phone in results so the campaign doesn’t have to rely on news organizations to know what’s happening. The campaign team is led by people who have done it all before, to the point that the campaign’s headquarters occupies the same modest storefront in Manchester where it was housed in 2008.

All this is important not just because of campaign craftsmanship, but because Mr. Romney’s single biggest advantage in this race is his ability—so far, at least—to convey the sense that he and his operation have the best chance to beat President Barack Obama in the fall.

Here’s a story about Iowa with the headline “Romney’s Iowa Win took a lot more than money“:

There are many similar stories out there in the internets…

Whatever, it was in response to this asinine comment:
