Obama Lawyer: Bush Manipulating FEC For McCain

Politico:

Obama counsel Bob Bauer, on his always-punchy personal blog, considers the newest appointments to the FEC and writes that the regulatory body is being put back together to exclude a Republican commissioner who had taken a critical stance toward McCain's attempt to thread the needle on public financing.

In this one move, the White House ended McCain's accountability for his use or abuse of the primary public financing system while putting him in position to take money for the general.

Here's the new square biz.

John McCain's general election campaign will be disgusting.
At some point in Time the media will have to honestly cover this guy, or risk being seen as what they are, totally full of shit and only out to shape public thought in ways that will hurt the publics ability to understand issues or come to informed decisions.

let me give you 4 huge stories that will become major issues.

There is going to be dirt, dirt, dirt. Republicans are on the ropes, and we all know they are the dirtiest political conglomeration in modern history. Their weak position is going to prod them to be true to their criminal nature. Republicans are formulating ways to break laws and do illegal things as we speak.
This is where the future headlines will come from. All the media has to do is watch them and pounce once they start their criminal enterprises Heck, let them get their criminal plans up and running, then blow the spot on them for all of America to see. .

with little effort the media is going to find financial criminality, voting machine criminality, FEC corruption, 527 illegality and much more. I promise you media people, you will make a lot of money covering Republican criminal enterprises this fall.

Republicans are totally incapable of staying within the limits of legal conduct. So there is going to be a field day of republican criminal bombshells to report on.
