Irony

Regardless of how the election turns out or for whom you wish to win, you've got to enjoy the irony of Mr. Campaign Finance Reform getting outspent by an opponent who has raised unprecedented amounts of money. Perhaps people will keep that in mind when they are sitting down to try and regulate private conduct in the future.

Of course, the flip side of this is whether Obama is, in fact, raising all this money legally. It would appear that, in true Chicago fashion, the law is being honored more in the breech than the observance. I'm sure there will be a thorough investigation of this after the election, and more calls to MoveOn.
