DEAN on campaign finance -- anyone know the outcome of this?

Governor Howard Dean has proposed to permanently gut Vermont's campaign finance reform law eliminating our landmark public financing option for governor and lieutenant governor. VPIRG opposes removing any money from the Fund because it sets a dangerous precedent for undermining democracy in Vermont and limits the legislature's options to strengthen the law in the future.

It looks old (referring to him as 'Governor Dean'), so presumably whatever happened, happened. How did it work out? Anyone know?
