Yes, it's 15 minutes long, but you have to see this. It's entertaining and informative.

Seconded, very entertaining story =)

I had no idea the history this Dick Morris guy had with the Clinton administration, that he was the guy in the hooker scandal.

Also, internet cash donation sites are the BEST way to launder money nowadays... You know, if you're into illicit business ventures =)

I think Colbert made a pretty good mockery of the system, i dont expect it to last.

Speaking of which, here is a good interview with Colbert from NPR. Its the first, and only, time i've heard him refer to himself as his 'character'. He seems to ALWAYS be in character, but opened up a little with NPR.

Depends on the focus in Congress. I think Obama has made it one of his priorities for this year, though. Even the big money backers have said "Hell, we put these billions of dollars into these dark money funds and RMoney wasn't elected. What the hell happened to our money?" (Which is pretty ironic, since Democrats have been complaining about the anonymous nature of PACs since Day 1.)

So, there's a (small) chance that even GOPs will be interested in at least exposing the money.
