Mitt Romney spends $300 on make-up work

[cynatnite]

BOSTON - Mitt Romney's campaign found 9,732 ways to spend its money last quarter. From a $15 service fee for its travel agent to $300 for makeup work to $31,500 to rent the Boston Red Sox's Fenway Park for a celebratory barbecue, the Republican presidential contender was anything but fiscally conservative in spending money as fast as he raised it between April and June.

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.

Next time someone brings up Edwards' haircut, I'm telling them about the make-up :evilgrin:

1. wow, he should ask for a refund.

Then again, maybe not. He might really look like Robert Novak.

2. It was makeup CONSULTING

These idiots don't do anything with a "consultant".

Then they ignore their advice 90% of the time.

3. If he starts wearing guyliner, I may have to vote for him.

4. I'd bet Bill O'liely spends 12,000 times that amount.

Now what's the $31,000 BARBECUE about?

7. And everyone was is such a tiz about John Edwards haircut

At least he didn't wear a diaper, that we know about yet.

But don't let him watch your dog.

9. All that cash and he still looks like Herman Munster...

That's how he'd waste the country's money too.

11. That was a low blow, and a boarderline juvenile comment.

No wonder I approve. :thumbsup:

[Hubert Flottz]

23. So...I'm in my second childhood...

today, I'll be in my third one by ten o'clock.

The lying goon still looks more like Herman than John Kerry did! I stand by my stetement...

[cboy4]

10. Forget the make-up, which he no doubt needs for TV...

I would be irate if I sent my hard-earned money to his campaign, only to find out he spent 32K renting fricken Fenway Park for a barbecue.

As if he couldn't cut a check himself for that.

17. that may have been a fund-raiser

and only the expense side is being pointed out to us.

[cboy4]

18. Oh that's true. I hadn't thought about that.

Thanks! :)

[Ikonoklast]

14. Considering that he only needed $300 bucks, I'd say that

He got his money's worth.

[sandrakae]

15. And $3.00 to color his hair.

[kskiska]

16. "I feel pretty…"

[Raven]

19. I haven't spent $300 on "makeup work" in my entire lifetime and

22. I think I have the breakdown of that $300

$1.99 for tooth whitener and $298.01 for Grecian Formula 16.
