Change for America...Visit the link above (or see here) for the details. Hot Air also comments on this bass-ackwards decision:
The Politico reported that Obama will not have to worry about his election donations scandal.
There will be no investigation:The Federal Election Commission is unlikely to conduct a potentially embarrassing audit of how Barack Obama raised and spent his presidential campaign’s record-shattering windfall, despite allegations of questionable donations and accounting that had the McCain campaign crying foul.However, John McCain will be audited since he took federal funding as he and Obama both agreed to back in the spring.
Obama went back on his word immediately after being nominated.
This is one of many, many questions that will probably remain unanswered about the Obama campaign. After all, we wouldn't want to let a little thing like the law stand in the way of the Obamessiah's crusade of ongoing hope-n-change, now, would we?Why would they want to audit Obama? The biggest fundraising operation in political history, infused with hundreds of millions of dollars from contributors whose names the campaign refuses to reveal, dependent upon a donation mechanism whose security measures were suspiciously and inexplicably disabled, and accused by reputable publications of having looked the other way at fraudulent donations that would have been detected immediately with cursory oversight.
Aside from that, I mean, why would they want to audit him?
The punchline? It’s because he’s rolling in dough that they’re less inclined to check him out.
...
[T]he more you cheat, the more you raise, the less “substantial” any single instance of cheating is and thus the lower the likelihood of an audit. Perverse incentives all around, with none of them to be corrected legislatively before 2012, at the very least.
There's my two cents.
