    Norquist, Rove, Sunnunu, ALL “super pacs”, and other idiocies and individuals gaming the system, should be “flagged” under the rules and thrown out of the game, but it ain’t happening.

    We were gonna have campaign reform, but Sheldon Adelson and the Koch Brothers bought it.

    Taking the Harry Reid bate, exactly as the Democratic campaign intended. The Obama people thank you for your support!

    TROUT: Quick quiz: Who was the last Presidential candidate to eschew Public Campaign Financing after promising to accept it, thus breaking a major campaign promise even before becoming President, a harbinger of things to come?

    Wasn’t campaign finance reform a significant section of the Contract with America?
    -
    Whatever happened to that part, anyway?

    @braindead08

    The Contract with America was a pledge to write 10 Bills, debate them on the floor of the House, and put them to a vote, nothing more. And they did what they pledged to do. Some Bills passed, some Bills were defeated, and some were either vetoed by or substantially altered in negotiations with President Clinton.

    And while Wikipedia may be incomplete, I don’t see Campaign Finance Reform listed as one of the reforms.

    ^ The Contract WITH America, yes. But the Contract ON America was a plan to flush the economy. Which succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.
