Aww. Howard Dean is upset. He's complaining that John McCain is "attempt[ing] to wriggle out of the very campaign finance constraints he championed." And while he may indeed have a legitimate point, the fact is that rules -- and laws -- mean little to Dean and the party he heads. The fact that is that when they want to do/change/modify/ignore something, they could care less about rules and laws, and this is likely to signify that not many are going to give a sh** about Dean's current bellyaching.
That, and the fact that Dean engaged in similar political behavior in 2004. Oh, and that Democrats are responsible for there currently not being a quorum at the FEC! Not to mention these little factoids from Democrats' inanities past.
Yup. Remember when the Democrats want to change the rules for their own benefit, it is progress. But when the Republicans want to enforce existing rules and legislation (like say election rules in Jersey) they're oppressing and disenfranchising the voters.
