The Campaign Finance Reform is one of the most overrated “Boogy Man” laws in history. Some on our side have really abused the interpretation of this law and use it to attack President Bush for signing it and to attack John McCain for coming up with it. I doubt very much that this law has restricted free speech by any measure.

What part of "Congress shall make NO LAW abridging the freedom of speech..." needs to be explained here??? This law shouldn't even have to be on the books to be pooh-poohed by McCain's defenders...much less McCain himself, who swore to UPHOLD the Constitution, not parse it to hell and back.

McCain sucks, as a Senator and as a Presidential Candidate. If he runs, I hope he goes down in flames, just like he did the last time.
