“Well, certainly the most expensive and probably the most negative certainly in a very long time. And it's very troubling. You know, I tried to get this campaign finance bill passed. And it was delayed to death at the end of the session by our opponents, like a lot of other bills were. But we don't need that. We need to reform the campaign finance system.

There ought to be things that involve people, that let them express their anger and frustration and then say, ``Okay, now, what are you going to do about it?'' Because what we run the risk of doing in this election--which is why I've been out here working like crazy since I got home from the Middle East--is we run the risk of seeing people vote for candidates whose platforms and positions they absolutely disagree with just because they say, ``I'm out; put me in. I'm mad, too.'' Mr. King. ``Throw the rascals out.''”
