1. The Republicans all move in lockstep. It's amazing how he suddenly started caring about this issue.

Just all of the sudden. I'm sure it was a deep change within his own heart.

[info being]

2. Perfect setup for another "major address"

...you know, where he explains in perfect detail what big money is, the way its taken control of our politics, and how he's different because he's taking money from "the people."

This is a softball for him to hit out of the park.

3. for every 1 flip flop Obama does, McCain does 20x the flip flop...Fair reporting? =/

Now go compare McCains numerous flip flops to this one Obama's.

4. Fuck all those who are criticizing him. For fucks sake... what a smear campaign. n/t

5. Can't stand to watch these bigots without getting sick. Graham is such a hateful asshole

[bjobotts]

6. Public finance was to get special interest money out of elections but

[bjobotts]

7. it limits the amount you can get. Rejecting it in Obama's case still captures the spirit

[bjobotts]

8. of public finance because the donations are small amounts from individuals

[bjobotts]

9. Not from big business and special money interests which Obam vows to not accept.

[bjobotts]

10. In spirit he did not flip-flop as this was the aim of public finance and he holds to it.

[bjobotts]

11. He did not break his word Graham ,only changed the tactic by which he keeps it

[bjobotts]

12. MTP remains a conservative shithole of smear propaganda.
