Ya know, while indeed he may have exceeded his financing limits and I have NO love for McInsane, I hate this kinda stuff cause it ALWAYS looks petty and politics as usual. Isn't that what we are trying to get rid of?

As opposed to, say, gaming the public financing system? I'd say that kind of double-dealing is precisely the kind of 'politics as usual' worth making a stand against.
How about this deal: all of those ballots where McCain didn't have to earn his way? Declare them null and void.
yeah. I know. That is an excellent point. I just think there are much better battles to fight and this one is a bit nit-picky, though important. But, like I said, you could be correct. Perhaps it is that the Republicans have become SO corrupt that this is why this seems like a minor issue to me. lol
Not really. If you hamstring McCain's fundraising, he simply cannot challenge Obama in all 50 states. Money, for better or worse, is the lifeblood of a campaign.
Money has been the lifeblood of our government and corporations have made out well.
