<<GWB has up until now opposed campaign finance reform on the sole ground that the Republicans would be hurt more by it than the Democrats would.>>

George Will has called this position of W's on finance reform "puerile".

Amazing in all your research you didn't uncover the fact that the democrats campaign finance reform is unconstitutional. Even if it wasn't, the fact that it would kill their party is a pretty good reason for Republicans to oppose it. What the hell do you think they'd do?

Plus Plus Plus Bush has his own campaign reform proposals that the democrats oppose? Why are they obstructing reform?

GWB has up until now opposed campaign finance reform on the sole ground that the Republicans would be hurt more by it than the Democrats would.
