Because he said that's what he would do. Or are integrity and honesty not as important when the candidate is a Republican?

Could you tell me one politician that pays solely for their own canidacy? I'm not trying to be an ass by asking that either, I am truly curious.

Sure. As I recall, Ross Perot did this in '92. The larger issue, though, is the fact that he said he didn't need to take money from anybody. So what did he do? He went and took money from a whole bunch of folks. Individual donations, I could maybe understand. Corporate ones, I couldn't. He lied about it, it's that simple.
