We will get a clearer picture of the tsunami that we faced. I think on a level playing field we would have easily won by 10 Million + votes again.
That makes the victory all the more sweet.

1) get tired of the same ads
2) they make up their minds based on the facts at hand
I was sure that the 1% were going to find out that they spent a whole crapload of money for naught
Now, watch them claim it on thier taxes as donations and try to get the middle class to pay them back
I would think there is a cap on donations that would prevent this.

America must overturn Citizen's United and publicly fund elections now!
