South Dakota Will Have Just as Much Big Money Ads as before the McCain-Feingold law
This AP story reports that the much touted McCain-Feingold law will have little to no impact in reducing big money TV ads in South Dakota. In the 2002 election, both candidates raised about $6 million dollars. This time around, Democrat Tom Daschle is planning to raise $10 million. So much for the law that some beltway reformers called the "most significant" reform in 30 years.
