Obama's Finance Ploy
Obama's Finance Ploy
There are a couple issues McCain is facing right now regarding election finances. These could dramatically effect his ability to campaign.

In order for the FEC to make a ruling they need a quorum but there are are not enough members. Obama is blocking the confirmation of an appointee. If Obama continues this, McCain will have his hands tied financially and Obama will obtain a huge advantage. picked by 2manyusernames 9 months ago
