The Presidency..

I think this is the 1st time in our history, where we can actually watch 3-4 people buy the presidency for a country of 350+ million..

Washington (CNN) – Fresh off a major donation to the pro-Mitt Romney super PAC, Nevada billionaire and major Republican donor Sheldon Adelson is expected to continue his support for some other GOP causes and may donate as much as $100 million this campaign cycle, a source with knowledge of his donations told CNN.

He doesn't want to put all his eggs in one basket, according to the source, and wants to see how the groups to which he contributes perform before deciding whether to give more.

– Follow the Ticker on Twitter: @PoliticalTicker

Among the potential recipients: the advocacy group Crossroads GPS co-founded by Karl Rove and an organization aligned with billionaires Charles and David Koch, who are sponsoring several different groups whose priority is aimed at helping Republicans to get out the vote vs. airing television ads. Crossroads and representatives for Koch have each asked Adelson for $10 million, but he has made no firm decisions about the level of commitment, according to the source contradicting some other reports.

"The requests are coming fast and furious," the source said. After months of speculation Adelson and his wife Miriam donated $10 million to Restore Our Future, the pro-Romney super PAC, making them its largest donors. This $10 million would be included in the $100 million total Adelson is looking to give during this campaign cycle.

Rove, The Koch Bros and Adelson will buy the presidency for a wealthy man who is bored with his life and wants to buy the one last thing there is to buy, after his father couldn't..

how do you or I compete with those 3-4 people? when they have the House of Reps and Supreme Court behind him..

The minute Romney wins, democracy is dead.. and our future will resemble any other 'warlord with the most money' 3rd world country...

well except we still won't have healthcare while those other 3rd world places do..

the saddest part in all this.. the idiots chanting happily for it all to happen.. because they just can't stand a black man in office..

It's sad that racist hate and the greed of the rich got us to this point.

The sum of all fears is given life when uncertainty and ignorance can be joined together for manipulative gain.

Scare the people, own the world.
