Mittens has money problems TOO!
John McCain's money woes are making headlines, but Mitt Romney's presidential campaign is spending more than it is raising.

Based on the report Romney filed with the Federal Election Commission over the weekend, his spending was so prolific he had to lend his committee $6.5 million during the quarter, allowing him to cover the difference between $20.5 million he spent and the $14 million he raised.

So what's he spending all his money on?

I received this in an email from another Dem yahoo group I subscribe to. It's an interesting question! I think he's spending it all on TV ads. Hell, I see the damn ads on my TV here in GA!
Do you suppose Mittens will be next to follow McCain in decent?

4. Those cosmetics are expensive
Romney's $300 Cosmetic Stylist

(A vigorous discussion. - promoted by Bob)

I wonder how this is going to play with the Edwards haircut crowd?

Politico has the story.

Well, "communications consulting" is how presidential candidate Mitt Romney recorded $300 in payments to a California company that describes itself as "a mobile beauty team for hair, makeup and men's grooming and spa services."

Romney spokesman Kevin Madden confirmed that the payments -- actually two separate $150 charges -- were for makeup, though he said the former Massachusetts governor had only one session

If you're wondering the name of the company Mitt Romney hired for his make up consultation?

I kid you not, Hidden Beauty of West Hills, CA, nothing in the testimonials from Mitt but his cosmetic stylist did have some good words about him:

"He's already tan," she said. "We basically put a drop of foundation on him...and we powdered him a little bit."
