Much Ado About NASCAR?

Brad Smith blogged about this FEC ruling in which NASCAR driver Kirk Shelmerdine was admonished for using some unsold space on his race car for a Bush-Cheney 04 sticker. The story has caught on. Brad was on MSNBC talking about it, the Washington Post editorialized about it, and Bob Bauer commented on it. I have to agree with the Post that bringing the resources of the FEC to bear on this de minimis case seems rather "silly."
