OK, so this is doubled. That's a pittance when you consider that the Rats will find other ways to raise money anyway. Do you think the unions won't find a way to get their membership to funnel hard donations now?

Big deal. democRATS will just double the amount of ILLEGAL cash they receive. And Bush and the GOP will ignore the new ILLEGAL contributions ... just like they ignored the ILLEGAL contributions of the last two elections (as proven by Ashcroft doing NOTHING about the Riady non-refund).
