Obama didn’t abide any campaign finance laws the last few years anyway. What difference would it make?

Obama and the Dems control most of the money. They want the regulations to disappear.

Obama didn’t abide any campaign finance laws the last few years anyway. Yup. Just like Bill Clinton. When caught cheating, his response was, "You need to pass more laws to keep me from being a bad boy." McCain complied. The McCain-Feingold CFR restrictions are a laughing point to Democrats. Obama did not follow CFR rules, never had any intention to, and never will. He is exempt. The press has seen to it.
What is the Alinsky rule? Make the other side abide religiously to their rules, but you may ignore them. McCain-Feingold written large.

Presiding over?Please. Obama destroyed all the supposed rules. No matter who is the GOP/Conservative nominee needs to exercise every option Obama did in this last cycle and remind eveyone how Obama was a promise-breaker in 2008 and thus can't complain.

Someone needs to hold the Democrats’ Heads to the Fire so that they beg for waterboarding.
