Kerry and Dean are just doing what they have to do in order to compete. If they limited themselves to what public financing provides, they would be buried by the Bush/Cheney warchest which is already over $100 million and expected to reach nearly $200 million. Would I like it if all the candidates spent less money, Yes, but it is unrealistic.
