In April, a single fundraiser in an area long known for its gritty urban poverty yielded a whopping $380,000. When Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) ran for president in 2004, he received $24,000 from Chinatown....

Dishwashers, waiters and others whose jobs and dilapidated home addresses seem to make them unpromising targets for political fundraisers are pouring $1,000 and $2,000 contributions into Clinton's campaign treasury. In April, a single fundraiser in an area long known for its gritty urban poverty yielded a whopping $380,000. When Sen. John F.

Campaign financing is the reason our government has gone down the toilet.

Getting the recipients to change it is a lost cause, corruption rules.

Say I wonder if the K street project is still up and running.

It seems to me that there was a big push on campaign finance reform being pushed by the Dems more than the Repubs, but it sure looks like it's more out of control than ever.
