1. The people donating haven't authorized its use for political purposes.
2. Some of the donors may actually like McCain
3. I think there's a law
4. Just goes to show, every idiot and their side kick wants to get into politics as a single issue candidtate.
5. Political campaigns donations are tax deductable, and go fund me donation are not. He would have screwed all of those donors out of their deduction.
