Besides Romney, those GOP Super PAC's have been spending outrageous amounts of money.
But even on that PAC front, the Democrats have surprisingly been able to keep up with them. But I hate PACs. Seriously why the Supreme Court allowed that bastard election season monster a free pass, I'll never understand.
It really takes a shit on the whole idea of campaign finance regulations, then takes said feces and wipes it in its face just because it can.
EDIT - If I'm not joking and serious about the embezzling part, Willard aint involved. He wants to win, no fortune in the world is worth campaigning non-stop for 2 years (in his case, 8 years). I remember a recent article claiming alot of that money went into professional political consulting firms owned by Team Willard members.
