    Did you read how dark money flows into campaigns? once again, dark money flows into DNC/RNC through shell/non profit companies. Anonymous donors donate to non profits which donate dark money to the DNC/RNC. All the DNC/RNC see is that money came from non profit company X, not individual donors.

    LOL, and you continue thinking the DNC/GOP don't know where that money comes from :) I guess you've never heard the saying, "Follow the money".. You honestly think those donors are untraceable, that's absurd. This is the digital age, BOTH PARTIES know what's what and whose WHO. Everything digital and or money has a trail..

    So if they were serious, they wouldn't need a bill! They would be simply exposing them, for giving THEM all those donations :)

    So does the DNC :) Then again the left will simply believe that "BY ONE VOTE" either side can just divulge those big money donors!

    Awwwwww chuckssss! Maybe next time ;)

    The DNC cannot force non profits to disclose who their donors are.

    Because of all those 501c4 organizations that support GOP policies such as True to vote and other similar organizations. It gives the GOP plausible deniability while at the same time accusing Democrats of the same thing.

    The point I'm trying to make is, IF you believe they don't know where big money comes from then you are kidding yourself :) Both parties receive a lot of money this way, and to think they would jeopardize that cash cow by disclosure is ridiculous, and that's putting it mildly :)

    It was a production, and the lost by one vote saga, well the audience bought it hook-line and stinker...
