John Edwards didn't have anything to worry about with the campaign financing charges. Well connnected politicians can get away with anything. In Florida if elected officials finds themselves with more than they spent on the campaign they can pocket a few thou and call it something like travel expense.

In Alabama it seems that some campaign contributions are considered bribes. Just ask former governor Siegleman.

We aren't Alabama, and until we change our present campaign system, contributions are not "bribes". Further, it is an insult to those who contribute to a candidate in whom they believe, to say such is so.

Ann, I believe that you have insulted that paragon of virtue, Richard Scrushy. But don't worry, we don't have anyone in the Sunshine state like him.

I've noticed that one candidate running for office in Walton County had an ad in August in the NW Florida Daily News yet there's nothing in the financing report listing the ad(s). Isn't this unusual?
