This is why I didn't have a problem with PACs [View all]

[Otto Lidenbrock]

We've got two candidates self-funding their campaigns with what to them is pocket money. Trump has an arsenal of dark money with the bully pulpit to his advantage this time. Yet we expected all our candidates to run with one hand tied behind their backs for bullshit purity reasons. You can't change campaign finance rules if you aren't in power.

That's what ultimately did for Kamala and Beto --- two of our rising stars. If you're not having the media come to you which they didn't, you have to go to them. And for that you need money.
