The accounts coming from the Romney campaign don’t seem like those we’ve gotten from other losing campaigns - McCain in 2008 or Kerry in 2004 for instance. There wasn’t such a hasty shutdown - and the elections laws and campaign finance laws do allow for an orderly shutdown of accounts and payment of bills even after the elections are over. It’s a recognition that bills and payments will continue for some time after the campaigns to deal with transitions for winners and losers alike.

The reports about the Romney campaign do seem out of line with the typical responses and someone was quick on the trigger to cut people off.
