Making sure Democrats stay in control of New York:

Eliot Spitzer is currently touting the new campaign finance rules that he plans on implementing. Spitzer will limit how much can be accepted by donors and PAC’s to just $10,000. Spitzer is trying to make it sound like this is a great thing and how it’s going to remove conflicts. The reality is the move instead ensures that the state will stay in the hand of Democrats.

In a state that blindly votes Democrat, the limitation will make it virtually impossible for any Republican to promote him or herself to the voters. Add that to a New York media that suppresses Republican candidates and you get a formula for indefinite control by Democrats.
