The fundraising sport is now generally conceded to be the determinant of our elections, considering the amount of space the media devote to it. Since this suggests that elections are determined by the frequent half-truths and misleading hints about opponents, we could save a lot of money and cancel the voting. Just tote up the dollar total and the winner is: democracy is dead, because the electorate lacks adequate intelligence.

Golly, great idea.
Not.
Or we could publicly finance elections. Have politicians owe their 'favors' to the people who voted, not to those with the deepest pockets, whether they be corporate or union.

Are the editors leaving it up?
Shall we point out the inaccuracies by Rev Moon's blogger? or is it coming down anyway?
