This video helped hurt McCain so bad in the summer, and if everyone hadn't left McCain for dead and actually kept attacking, he would have been finished. We need to bring this video and other videos like it back! Let's finish McCain once and for all!

McCain is a cackling old snake. How can anyone in their right mind take this warmongering creature seriously? Have people already forgotten about his immigration fiasco?



The McCain-Feingold Act on Campaign reform was very cleverly drafted with Loopholes. People keep forgetting... what's amazing after McCain & Company pushed this Propaganda (so-called BiPartisan) Bill through, THEY INCORPORATED INFLATION ADJUSTMENTS!

THEY CAN ADJUST FOR INFLATION each Year for CAMPAIGN DONATIONS but they could never bring themselves to do this for AMERICANS on the AMT TAX! There yah go folks! Fire in charge of Dynamite!

Who can give

*

Individuals. See the chart below on how much.
*

Political Committees. Political committees and all their variants - political action committees, or PACs, and leadership PACs - are independent groups that come together to help elect candidates. They raise money that they can then hand over to party committees and candidates. Like individuals, they're limited in how much they can give (from $5000 - $26,700). PAC contributions are a drop in the bucket for the presidential races, but pay for roughly a third of congressional races (OS).
*

Party Committees. These are political committees that officially represent a local or national party. They have limits in how much they can give candidates, but they can transfer funds between other party committees to their hearts' desire.

Who can't give. Corporations and unions cannot give money to candidates or committees, although they can spend money on other organizing efforts (see loopholes below). Foreigners who are not citizens or legal residents and government contractors also cannot give to federal campaigns.
Who can receive - and what they can spend their money on:

*

Political committees can receive limited donations from individuals and other committees and, as mentioned above, can give limited amounts to candidates. They can spend unlimited funds, however, on "independent expenditures."
*

Party committees can receive limited money from individuals and other committees and unlimited money from other party committees. They can give a limited amount to candidates and can spend limited funds on "coordinated" expenditures, but can spend an unlimited amount on "independent expenditures."
*

Candidates can receive limited amounts from individuals and committees, but once they get their money, they can spend it where they please.

That's funny that he refers to himself as a straight talker since all McCain does is spout rhetoric and make faces when other candidates are speaking.

I would love to see some extremely harsh attack ads from the official campaign targetting the other candidates. I'm not saying strategically it would be the best decision, but I would love watching those ads.
