I wonder if we are watching smoke and mirrors, and this is all really about raising the ceiling on hard money contributions. They pass a bill they know won't hold up under the scrutiny of the Supreme Court who will strike the provision of the bill that interfers with free speech.

The politicans look like they have tried to do something about CFR when really all they have done is come away with the ceiling raised on hard money, alot of lawyers make money and a name for themselves, and politicians get to roll back legislation, that was like pulling teeth to get passed in the first place, when the limits were first enacted.

You forgot the best part: The United States Supreme Court tells John McCain he wrote, sponsored, and helped pass an unconstitutional bill. :-)

If the parts that I think will be struck ARE, in fact, struck, the bill will be a gold mine for the GOP.

One other thing: maybe once and for all they will SHUT UP about CFR.

I can think of no better example of congressional/executive/judicial "sausage-making".
