Obama Campaign Finance Promise: Just Words


It is easy to break a pledge when you consider the content of the promise to be nothing more than “just words,” at least if you are Barrack Obama that is.

Seeing the prize of the Presidency within his grasp, Obama has reneged on a previous guarantee, and has decided to forgo accepting public funds (which in turn would have placed spending restrictions on Obama’s campaign):

Obama Sings A Different Tune: " Money, That’s What I Want"

This of course will be diminished by Obama’s supporters, but should be a reminder to all of us of how easy it was for Barrack Obama to go back on his word when the promise no longer suited him. Politics as usual!
