Is there any intention of further campaign finance reform, or changes to the McCain-Feingold finance reform bill?

In the wake of all the 527 wackiness weve seen this election cycle, I can’t help but be curious.

At what point is somebody going to actually fight for Bush’s judicial appointments and make the Democrats pay for their unconstitutional filibuster?

Don’t ask them anything at all. Just let them run their convention and get it over with. Then we can get down to Serious Politics.

I’d like to see a running commentary on how delegates answer this question—

What is the American Dream?

I’d also like to see you ask any elected official you bump into, as many of these questions as they’ll answer:

What is the Republican Party’s plan for helping the one in four full-time American workers who now earns wages that put them below the federally established poverty line?

What is your appraisal of the energy situation today and do you think Republicans doing everything they can to address it?

Please list up to five federal programs President Bush will (or you would) to cut to save the American people $50 billion a year in the first year of his new Presidency (the next Congress).

Please explain again why we are so adamant about not signing an international treaty granting jurisdiction over the United States to an International Court of Law with regards to actions we take in the world beyond our own sovereign borders?

Thanks, especially for that running delegate commentary. Should be interesting.
