Unable to copy it ATM.  If someone else can it would be appreciated.  

DWS wants 20 Million from the taxpayers to hold the DNC convention.  

Sorry but I they can't fundraise this then they best scale it down to what they can afford .  Maybe this would allow an outside party to get some traction.

It won't, but I agree. National conventions should be paid for by the parties, not tax money. I think the only issue here would be if Congress made the change last year at a time when it knew it would be flush and the Dems would not. If so, then that's not ok. They should have been given a period of warning. And no, a year isn't really long enough when you're talking about tens of millions of dollars in fundraising.
