"No limits." Why should anyone be limited in how much they can give to a candidate they believe should be elected? Could a voter buy some favoritism. Perhaps, but not without the politician taking some risk that his or her favoritism will come back to bite them since compliance with the "Full Disclosure" requirement would expose such coziness. At a minimum, the "bribe" would be from a constituent as opposed to a lobbyist or PAC. Is there anyone who believes Representative Charlie Rangel's escapades paid for by some corporations weren't intended to buy his favor? They likely did!
I differ in no way from George Will's position on these two aspects of his seven words.
