Big Expense of Covering Romney Campaign Questioned by Billed Media Outlets
One campaign aide, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the bills were not artificially inflated, but rather the product of a generally mismanaged campaign. The aide said the advance team which was tasked with arranging meals and accommodations for the press failed to communicate with other elements of the campaign and consistently spent more money than necessary.
News Outlets Battle Romney Campaign Over Expenses
Romney is trying to bill them for $800.00 meals. Hilarious is they say it was the "Romney staff" who actually ate the meals.
Just one example of the overbilling. Now we know what a "fiscal conservative" looks like.
Like I said, we dodged a bullet.
