The move is considered a slap in the face of the Republican Party's failed 2008 presidential candidate, Sen. John McCain

I love how that reads. Maybe the conservatives are finally growing a set.

As I recall it was moderate Republicans (and some conservatives, like Fred Thompson!) who allowed McCain-Feingold to go through. Not to mention signing it was GWB’s biggest mistake. So for party leaders to admit they want to undo their own legislation is pretty embarrassing. Of course another big proponent of “reform” was the defeated Rep. Chris Shays.
