For clarity's sake, I shouldn't have conflated my opinions on CU with WI. Money doesn't matter more in the Dems vs. Repubs situation. In my opinion, a post-CU world has more effect on the actual candidates we, as citizens, get and their motivations rather than on how those candidates compete with each other.
I'm with you 100% that it's counter-productive, if not dangerous, that money plays such a big role. I just suspect that liberals are playing that card this week, simply because they didn't get what they want this time. And when liberals don't get what they want, they throw a hissy fit just like my kids. I know you're not doing that, I'm saying everyone at MSNBC is doing that.
