"Democrats Seek a Stronger Focus, and Money"
Here
is the second of two parts on the political parties by Adam Clymer in the
New York Times. From the article: "They have been inattentive to
fund-raising from small donors, especially by direct mail, a situation that
has grown desperate now that the unlimited donations known as soft money
have been outlawed under the McCain-Feingold law, though the measure is being
challenged in court. As Donna Brazile, Al Gore's campaign manager in 2000,
said, 'Without soft money, the party is in poverty.'"
