That with the fact Obama’s team simply ignored all rules regarding fund raising, really put Repubs in a difficult situation.

No.

What put Repubs in a difficult situation was their candidate.

McCain's funds were gone and his campaign was DOA, until a little help from his friends resurrected it.

Regardless of that, McCain HAD to select public financing, because he was not getting any significant donations -- even after he became the nominee. Donations didn't pour in until AFTER he put Gov. Palin on the ticket.

McCain was outspent 8 to 1. Obama shut off the ticker on his incoming funds.

Repubs did not donate to anyone including FRed,Tancredo or Duncan.
Mass helplessness set in.
