Look at how cynical the Dems are, also from the NYTimes:

Re: McCain-Feingold

..."There's a real genuine fear on our part that this will pass," one Senate Democratic aide said. "We've been voting for this for years knowing it wouldn't pass. Now no one can change their votes."

Mr. Breaux said he thought that a ban on soft money "does not create a level playing field between the two main parties."

"Anything that creates an imbalance to the degree that this does in the parties is not real reform," he said.

Dems are mad that the GOP will gain advantage because of its large base of small donors while the Dem Party relies on "soft" money from special interest groups and union thugs.
