The cost of the '08 election? $1 billion. Can we say it's time for some reform?

Three House members and one senator on Tuesday introduced legislation that would increase the amount of money in the presidential public financing system and increase the spending limits for candidates who participate in it. It would not change the rules for the 2008 presidential election.
"This system that's in place now is not sustainable," said Rep. Martin Meehan, D-Mass., who introduced the legislation in the House with Reps. Christopher Shays, R-Conn., and David Price, D-N.C. Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Wis., introduced similar legislation in the Senate."

PS...Washington was incredible. It was great to meet so many wonderful DUers, and march with them and the hundreds of thousands other patriots to end this horrific fiasco the lying weasel and his varmint pack have created. Peace.
