  might be hyperbole but it would be a large percentage of candidates. Would it be a bad thing if someone (the  media or other) did a better job of objectively publicizing the impact the "money grabbers" have on government and more people were motivated to support people who don't grab for money?

 Personally, I'd welcome it. As it is, we just have the flacks for one set of money grabbing hacks  attacking the opposing money grabbers and excusing their own grabs leading people to conclude they really have no choice but to choose between money grabbing hacks and to simply choose the slightly lesser evil because that's as good as it gets.

  It's kind of sad that people who argue for a repudiation of all of the money grabbers are dismissed as quixotic eccentrics, and its considered a sign of sphisticated realism to champion how well our candidate plays the game.
