Candidate of “Change” Changes Mind on Public Financing
June 20, 2008
This is a subject that doesn’t bother me either way as it’ll play itself out. Especially when Rev Wright Greatest Hits go viral via 527s and web. Game will be over – McCain wins. Hillary runs in ‘12.
But you gotta laugh at the OBamboozler. Are his supporters really buying this BS?
Politco has a nice rundown of the many faces of OChange re: Public Financing.
Here’s a way-back-machine look at his very first comments in June of ‘06. Don’t expect to see this on MSNBC’s Countdown (til I Can Get My Head out of Obama’s Ass) anytime soon.
Viewing tips:
At 5 seconds: “I STRONGLY support public fnancing, and I, uh, uh, know Dick (Durbin) does too.”
Starting at 19 seconds til end: You can CHANGE the rules on lobbying, but if we’re still getting financed primarily from INDIVIDUAL CONTRIBUTIONS, uh, that, uh, those with the most money are still going to have the most influence.”
