Romney campaign to hit the road with 100 surrogates

(CNN) – Mitt Romney and his running mate, Rep. Paul Ryan, will kick off a four-day tour starting Friday, where they'll be joined by their wives and 100 surrogates in the final days of the White House race, his campaign announced Wednesday.

The tour starts off with a rally in West Chester, Ohio. Featured guests that day include former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Sen. John McCain of Arizona.

In the four days before Election Day, the surrogates will fan out across eleven battleground states: Colorado, Ohio, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Wisconsin.

1. All hopefully met by deadening silence......

[Maximumnegro]

2. North Carolina, huh. Thought that was locked, Mittens!

Once again Romney thinks if he can just carpet bomb everything he can make a difference. Needless to say all those people are getting paid as well.

[ncgrits]

37. Dear god. Please let him be stupid enough to come to the Triangle! nt

[Drunken Irishman]

3. I notice Minnesota isn't on there...

Hard to take their claim seriously that they feel they can win there without at least stepping foot inside the state. It was all a bluff.

[Chichiri]

28. +1

[gkhouston]

4. I'm impressed that he could scrape up 100 surrogates. I wonder how many of them are being paid. nt

[Tx4obama]

6. That's a good point. I wonder who they are. I can't think of any GOPers that would draw a crowd.

Romney and Ryan don't even draw huge crowds.

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

8. Let's see - he has Trump, Orly Taitz, Victoria Jackson, Hank Junior...

...Nugent, Jenna Jameson, Meat Loaf and Lohan

Then he really has to sink to to come up with the other 92

[hogwyld]

35. Need to add one more kook

Mourdock from IN. I think he was the gift from God...

[blue-kite]

15. Kelsey Grammar... he was a Bush supporter (one of few HW types)... his view on Rommers?

[Maximumnegro]

10. Probably a lie. 10 surrogates, 90 'staff' or some such sh*t.

[faithfulcitizen]

29. Exactly! Don't forget 30 of them are Romneys!!

[Tx4obama]

5. Let's just hope that the media keeps covering the storm damage...

... and doesn't give Romney any free air time

Or if they do cover any of the events then hopefully the cameras will pan around showing small crowds

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

7. 100 surrogates? Oh, gawd - they cloned Sununu!

The horror!

[Democratopia]

11. while the president is focusing on being president and making things happen for flood victims,

Romney is complaining and lying about the president again. Not a good contrast.

[BlueMTexpat]

12. One Bill Clinton is worth more than the whole 100

of Romney surrogates, IMO. It's just too bad that Clinton can't be everywhere at once.

At least some Romney surrogates are at least as unlikable as Romney, so this push now could even be counterproductive - except among the already converted.

[shayes51]

21. Definitely! nt

[yankeepants]

13. He's going to need a bigger clown car. n/t

[Cha]

14. That list reads like a bunch of ghouls and vampires

set out to pillage and suck blood from our country.

[blue-kite]

16. Romney and Ryan 2012: The UnDead!

[fujiyama]

41. Definitely sounds more like a Halloween party!

[smorkingapple]

17. This just reeks of desperation now... One Bill Clinton > all 100 of those clowns

[barbiegeek]

18. Donny & Mary? The Osmonds? That is at least 12

[justiceischeap]

23. Well, "Marie" has a gay son, so I don't see her supporting a R/R ticket.

I could be wrong but she's pretty vocal in her support of him (her son).

[OldDem2012]

19. 100 surrogates?? Maybe it's really 10 surrogates and a typo. nt.

[bama_blue_dot]

20. Why is he campaigning in

Michigan?? I hope these garbage polls aren't right..

[fugop]

26. Because Ohio is gone baby gone!

He's desperate to cobble together 270, and with Ohio out of reach, he's Hail Marying in Mich, Wis and Pa.

Won't work, but he's gotta take a shot.

[Justice]

22. so appropriate. not.

[bama_blue_dot]

24. I also love how they say "100 surrogates"

yet they provide no list.. I think this is a load of malarkey!

[onecent]

25. Well, where the HELL is meatloaf????????????????? n/t

[beac]

27. Translated Headline: Losers, War Criminals, Has-Bens and

2016 Candidates Fan Out to Further Their Own Agendas.

[JoePhilly]

30. Does this mean GW isn't in the TOP 100 Republicans??? LOL!!!

[flamingdem]

31. They are blowing their Koch wad$y n/t

[DCBob]

32. they forgot to put word "paid"..

no doubt most, if not all, of them are paid surrogates.. why else would they campaign with such a loser.

[barnabas63]

33. You forgot Meatloaf....he'll be "helping" Mitt too. nt

[Tx4obama]

36. Meatball might be too embarrassed to come out right now :) n/t

[underpants]

38. D League

[Firebirds01]

39. West Chester??

Hahahaha talk about preaching to the choir. West chester is Boehner's home town. The place is Alex P Keaton's version of heaven

[madinmaryland]

40. Heh! He's dragging out "Noun, verb, and 9-11"!!

[nc4bo]

42. Well this certainly sounds messy..

That much roadkill spread across so many states is going to leave a real mess!
