DIDN'T TAKE LONG



--for other columnists to jump onto the "Barack's showing courage" by forgoing public financing (and going against his own promise) -- Maureen Dowd notes in Wednesday's column that--

Rove and Co. are nervous because they see that Obama, in rejecting public financing, is not going to be a chump, like some past Democratic candidates.

Wow. Once again, Obama gets a free pass. Any other politician would be excoriated for abandoning campaign reform, his signature issue; but here Obama's showing he's not a "chump" by abandoning his principles. He'll do anything to get elected, it seems; but the pundits want him elected so badly they don't seem to care.
