63. Then take your own advice, for pete's sake
CFR has become accepted as an all encompasing abbreviation for the concept of campaign finance reform in general. CFR NEVER was accepted as McCain/Feingold only because there we multiple versions of CFR on the hill other than McCain/Feingold.

In other words, go look up CFR in a your favorite press organization's stylebook, then proceed to the "Shut-The-Hell-Up Expressway" outta here. There's only one thing worse than someone who pollutes a serious discussion with whiney nitpicking. That's polluting a thread with whiney nitpicking that's wrong.

Shortened schedule wrong again... Alaska in July, Oregon in May.
