Becoming a Party of Difference

Democratic Party Will No Longer Accept Washington Lobbyist Donations

"Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean and the Obama for
America Campaign today announced that the DNC will no longer accept
Washington lobbyist donations, making the same commitment as Barack
Obama, the presumptive Democratic nominee for president."

What a stark challenge to the entire Republican Party! This will give Democrats everywhere a powerful rhetorical talking point: "Our party isn't beholden to the money of special interest lobbyists, how about yours?"

Thank you nominee Obama!
