Campaign Finance Reform

"Big Political Cheese" got its name in honor of all those Cheeseheads who love a little politics with their lives in America's Dairyland.  But that political cheese is getting more and more expensive.  The latest report studying state Supreme Court elections across the country shows that spending on those races doubled in the past decade.

It's now officially summertime of an even-numbered year.  That means it’s time for the political noise machines to screech back to life.

I’ll admit political machines can occasionally be entertaining and sometimes produce something positive. For the most part the output is just whining noises, half-truths and tired spin trying to find anything that will stick to their opponents. 

One of our jobs here at Big Political Cheese is to examine the cacophonous whine and provide a useful translation for the masses that, you know, have lives.
