In reply to the discussion: Sheldon Adelson Vows To 'Double' Donations To GOP After Huge 2012 Election Failure [View all]Zambero

He says "Winning and losing is the basis of the entire business...". Well, it seems to be more about LOSING these days! Given Adelson's collosal record of failure in both the 2012 GOP primary and general elections, his targeted contributions seem to be a jinx for those GOP candidates that he supports. I say to him, since's it's just fun with gambling away a few bucks, "stay the course" and keep those dollars coming!

Agree with #1. Adelson may have lots of money, but he still only gets one vote.

All the money on the planet isn't going to make a guy like Mitt Romney any more appealing.
