Abstract

I have written elsewhere about how Obama’s campaign was radically different. It terms of tactics, methods, participation, new media and race it seemed to signal a shift. But one cold fact reminds us that nothing has changed about US politics. In fact it has got ‘worse’. The evidence is that money still decides elections from the top to the bottom of the democratic structure.
