Since public financing has began; every Presidential candidate in the General Election has accepted it. Obama started his campaign with the promise that he would accept public financing, an offer immediately accepted by McCain. This was when Obama was seen as weak and McCain as strong.

Wrong. Every Democratic presidential nominee has accepted public financing. NO republican presidential nominee has accepted public financing.
Obama did NOT promise to accept public financing. He said that if he is the nominee, he will try to persuade the republican nominee to accept public financing with him.
And John McCain will sprout wings and fly to Mars before he accepts public financing for the general election.
