And the 527 bill expanded McCain-Feingold and I don't want that. Do you?

It didn't expand it in a bad way though. It was actually an improvement to the stinking McCain-Feingold bill that Hunter voted against. Under the 527 bill the '527' organizations would have had to crawl out from under their rocks and name their donors. The labor unions and special interest groups were screaming against it, so that should tell you all you need to know.

The same was true with McCain-Feingold, that doesn't make it a good law. Anyway, there are a lot of other votes on which Rep. Hunter voted the wrong way. Unfortunately, he's not a fsical conservative.
