I mean, if money decides it in your mind totally, then lets just count our nickles the night before the voting or keep good track of it and just declare a winner, OR as you are suggesting money does it sometimes when your candidate wins, it was not money !!!

I guess I am just confused.

This entire thing was union motivated and anyone who has followed it unbiased and totally knows it. It was all about the unions...they are the ones who got the signatures......listen, the politicians themselves didnt want it...it was a loser coming in. This was all about the unions.

If everytime and election is lost the only reason is the money.....gee..that sure does make it easy.

I just do not buy this logic. Lots of money spent....lots of money from outside....but actually, fund raising and getting the money is often a precursor to who has the best message (or chance if you will)
I do understand the post that was quoted--simply to not just look at the spending of one side but to look at the spending of both sides--but I don't understand this response. Can you make it clearer?

Speaking of McCain, its important to see why he might have been broke after the primary. It is rare for me not to vote Republican, and the ONLY reason I didnt was because of his running mate Sarah Palen. I could not even count how many Republican women said the same thing. Maybe just maybe THIS is why he was broke after the primary?
