Katie quoted someone from the Washington Post to the effect that it's not healthy for a candidate to be able to bankroll his own campaign.

Seems like you're damned if you do, damned if you don't. If you accept contributions, you're the lackey of the special interests. If you finance your own campaign, freeing yourself from any special interests, somehow that's "not healthy."

Yes, well the libs would like us, the taxpayers, to finance campaigns. And no doubt, like the mad Mullahs in Iran, they'd like to decide which candidates are "acceptable" to contend.
