1) Uh, really? You think Obama or McCain would accept tens of thousands of dollars from the Gottis, if only McCain Feingold were repealed?
2) So what? Crime is already, by definition, illegal. If there is some benefit to committing a crime, shouldn't we create laws against the crime, rather than laws against the benefit. I mean, money from crime can also translate into money for nice cars, so restricting the sale of nice cars would discourage crime. But it would be silly.
