That does precisely jack and shit to refute his point, which was that you're spewing mindless anecdotal evidence with vague-ass claims. Provide some quantitative proof or at least a broader study, asstard.

Oh wait, that's what you just did, again.
I thought we got rules saying the affairs of other forums is of no concern here?
We "got" rules about back seat moderating, too.

They are talking about it on CNN right now going on about how refreshing it is for a Politician to keep his word for a change and how Obama has a clear vision for where he wants to take this nation.

pledge he made last year to accept public financing if the Republican nominee did the same
Correct me if I'm wrong but, isn't that a myth? A lie? A distortion? What I remember Obama saying is that he was willing to come to an agreement regarding public financing.

He was willing to 'Discuss a publically finanaced election' with the Republican Nominee.

Of course, his campaign is publically finanaced, IE, funded mostly by small donors, members of the public.
