Politics and Big Money

I’m tired of hearing about the political primaries and we still have a year to go… and I’m tired of commentators talking about how it’s all about the money the candidates are raising (it is, I am just tired of being reminded about it). Let’s just put the whole thing up on Ebay and see who’s PAC can outbid everyone else?

A VC: That’s Not How You Do It Obama: My friends who are deeply involved in politics tell me that the Democratic campaign is going to be about money, big money, and that Hillary has the big advantage and it may be over before we even get to the primaries. I am saddened to hear that. Because although we could play the big money game, I hate it. It’s not democratic.
