McCain and public money

The candidate for President McCain is mad about a promise unkept.  Well, I would be mad about a promise lost too, but...

This promise was to take public campaign funds.  McCain knows like Mrs. Clinton, he will have a hard time in the general election to raise the kind of money O'bama has been able to raise.  For McCain, it is an equalizer: the public campaign funds.

Obama is in this race to win, and he made a great chess move yesterday.  Yes, the media will be swaying in the wind about broken promises, but a promise that limits the ability of the public to give to the candidate they want to support was simply Un-American.
