> reimpose and reinforce campaign finance restrictions and sever the direct financial ties between our big corporations and the politicians who serve them.

I don't disagree, but it seems to me that it is only possible to legislate such a thing when the problem such legislation would solve doesn't exist.

I tend to prefer even less likely solutions, such as term limits, or diffusion and decentralization of one or both of the legislative bodies, but these solutions run up against the same problem as campaign finance reform - the people with the power to enact the change are the ones who benefit most from the status quo.
