1. Edwards never accepted PAC money & Kerry didn't for 2004 & they did
fine. They raised more money than anyone ever.

But the corps should did hate them.

2. Vague question.
There are no donations from corporations themselves since McCain-Feingold.

Are you asking if donations from corporate-managers should be rejected?

With regard to PACs, what about MoveOn PAC?
