You're right of course considering the lobbyists who control campaign finance, and the Red States being in the country's heartland, and the Iowa caucuses fast approaching, that the Republicans are focused on their own interests on this one.
It's politics as usual, and the liberal media focus as usual. There are plenty of stories of Democrat proposed actions or inactions related to campaign money, that are not in the general public interest, and are not the focus of media scrutiny. But, that's life in the big city.
