Feingold Says Not to Worry. I Say Otherwise!
HT to Little Green Footballs on this story.
They link to a PoliPundit blog which in turn contains a link to these proposed regulations.
After a very cursory scan of the document (48 pages) I came across a couple of sections that give relief but do little to allay my fear and skepticism about campaign finance reform. You see the document does state a private citizen blogging does not constitute an expenditure, but I am sure there is a lawyer somewhere who will someday (sooner than one would think) convince a judge that some poor schmuck out there blogging away is in violation of the BCFRA.

Link to regulations corrected.
