Read more: Harry Reid backs campaign spending amendment - Burgess Everett - POLITICO.com
In my opinion one of the most important bills to reach the Senate floor. Its clear that we are becoming more and more an oligarchy (if we arent already there) and that money is buying our elections and our representatives. Unfortunately this is not likely to pass [/FONT][/COLOR]
But Democrats believe the failed vote on the amendment, which needs the backing of 67 senators, will still pay dividends in the run-up to the midterm elections, painting Republicans as supporters of big money in politics and Democrats as on the side of ordinary voters.
Blatant issue manipulation...
Economy? Nope, we can't win on that.
Minimum wage? Oops, failed in congress.
Amnesty? Ah, er, um....yeah kind of regretting that "enemies" boast.
Health care? :2rofll:
So, lets create a new one, a wedges issue on a narrow and patently misleading "hoping to paint them..." is fraud, FFS, about campaign financing.
AHh, Senator Reid? You've had a good many years to play this hand, including when you owned both houses there for two years...so about this Democrats saying Republicans are "playing politics" with the IRS scandal, Benghazi, etc., it is clearly and openly a fact now, that the reverse is and has been true...and you are now fighting for your own life there in liberal Nevada.
These, progressives are slippery vermin. We have been hunting them in the Canadian wild for many decades. It they were as brave as wolf or as unrelenting as beaver they would be a force. Fortunately they are lazy.
