NYT: Obama Is Killing Public Financing System

An "imperfect way to rid politics of the excesses of special-interest money."

(Until McCain/Feingold refined it.)


Obama's latest flip is a humdinger, and his cheering squad in the MSM is soft-soaping it as he can't bother with the "broken, imperfect system".

I expect McCain to suggest changing the 1040 $3 check box to $9.19.

I won't check it then either.

Broken. Imperfect. System.


I hate those. But if he manages to kill it, that's change I can hope in.

I firmly believe in campaign funding. That's my position and I'm sticking to it.
