General Wesley K. Clark Challenges Fellow Candidates to Abide by New Hampshire Spending Limits
http://clark04.com/press/release/084/
Today, at a forum sponsored by the American Association of Retired Persons, General Clark challenged the other candidates to abide by the federally mandated spending limits in New Hampshire. Neither Governor Dean nor Senator Kerry-the two candidates refusing to participate in the public financing system-responded to the challenge.

"The issue is not just how much money you raise, but how much money you spend. All Democratic presidential candidates ought to abide by the spending caps in New Hampshire," said Clark. "Those who have more money should use it at the end of the nominating process against George W. Bush, not against their fellow Democrats who are playing by the rules. This nomination should be decided based on leadership, issues, and character-not money."

is A-#1 in my book.

nt

against a candidate on campaign financing limits in NYC) - I surely understand what spending limits mean.

will be interesting to see how it pans out. I dont think Dean needs to go beyond the limits there. Kerry on the other hand....

Will be interesting to see what hapens. Anyone know how close either Dean or Kerry are to the caps in either place?

I would not be happy if Dean used the money he gets to outspend dems in tough races. That money is for booosh.

However if Kerry goes hog wild in NH I will expect Dean to stay competative.

I would say the ball is in Kerry's court now.

After that, caps off against Smirky.
