How do you see this interacting with Larry Lessig's MayDay PAC?

The message is slightly different, but the tactics seems identical. I'm always for the experimentation that comes with a new approach, but competition for funds and candidate engagement here could hurt.

Update: Jim is on the board of MayDay

Mayday is supporting candidates that promise to vote for campaign finance reform.

CounterPAC is pressuring candidates to run their races cleanly . We don't care about their legislative positions. Just how they run their race - which is immediately measurable and actionable.

Republicans have a hard time with their party leadership if they sign on for reform legislation. They are pretty free to run their race however they want, as long as they win.
