<Bush is widely expected to collect $200 million or more for next year's primaries > Amazing! The money in politics in the U.S. absolutely boggles my mind. To think that Republicans used to incessantly bash the Clintons for their fund-raising. [Do I have to insert a disclaimer at this point for conservatives declaring that I am not a Clinton fanatic so I do not get bashed for being a 'liberal' -- such a dirty word <g>]

Jim, Under the nation's new campaign finance law, the group must remain separate from the Democratic Party to accept contributions on the scale of what Soros has pledged. The law bans national party committees from accepting contributions of that size from any source. Yep, that new campaign finance law is really keeping the money out of politics, is it not?
