This laughable campaign finance "reform" just goes to show that Democrats aren't really in favor of free speech.

Now I'm a conserative republican and something of a BushBot, BUT before we start feeling all pious about this lets remember there were a large number of people with an R after their name who voted for this abortion of a law.

It has a lot to do with politicians getting "cute" and thinking they can get some short-term gain out of this.

This IS an election year, and your representative/senator IS going to be coming around and asking for your support/vote. Grill them on this, did they vote for it? WHY? Did they vote against it? Thank them, and ask them what are you doing to get rid of it.

The only way we are going to get rid of this is to make the boys and girls from DC understand that we are NOT happy campers.

It's proper name should be 'The Incumbent Protection Act of 2003' - that explains everything.
