The two of them were talking about money and its influence when Shays came out with something along the lines it shouldn't take you raising millions of dollars to become a committee chairman. He returned to that theme three or four times during the rest of the interview.
Normally, when some one returns to a theme during an interview it reflects a key thought or position.
If that is even half way true then what is the real driving factor behind the CFR Bill? Is it to reduce the impact of money or to enable Shays to achieve a Congressional Committee Chairmanship?
Looking at the size of Conn. I suspect it is more the later than the former.
