Post-DISCLOSE debate continues

In the wake of the failure of the DISCLOSE Act on a procedural vote, self-styled reformers—as well as Senator Chuck Schumer—are talking tough, threatening to bring the bill back for another run.

The bill failed because not one Republican, including several who voted for McCain-Feingold eight years ago, not least John McCain, was fooled by the DISCLOSE charade.
