President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday the West has failed to break Iran’s will in the nuclear standoff, days after world powers presented Tehran with a new offer aimed at ending the crisis.

“In the nuclear issue, the bullying powers have used up all their capabilities but could not break the will of the Iranian nation,” Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying by state television.

World powers — Britain, China, France, Germany, Russia and the United States — on Saturday offered Tehran a new package of technological and economic incentives in exchange for suspending uranium enrichment activities.

Ahmadinejad’s comments were his first statement on the nuclear crisis since the offer was presented but it was not clear if they represented a reaction to the proposal.

The Iranian government spokesman has already said Tehran will reject any offer demanding it suspends uranium enrichment.

The United States and the European Union have been twiddling their thumbs with proposals of meaningless economic and political sanctions while Iran has been developing the ability to manufacture nuclear missile delivery systems and nuclear warheads.

This must be scaring Israel to action or Iran will soon nuclear blackmail them into leaving Israel.

His broken promise: “I will aggressively pursue an agreement with the Republican nominee to preserve a publicly financed general election.”

Says he made the decision because the financing system is “broken,” and McCain and the RNC will be fueled by contributions from lobbyists and PACs.

Though adds “It’s not an easy decision because I support a robust system of public financing of elections.”

The fact is Obama has raised a ton of money on the internet and does not wish to be constrained by the federal spending limits.

Will this spell trouble for John McCain and the GOP?

You bet since McCain has NOT been able to tap into GOP donors, particularly those of President Bush.

And, what will the increased funds do for Obama besides money for more print advertising and television commercials?

Answer: The Democrats and Obama will be able to hire MORE field workers to register people to vote in key demographics, and better track THEIR voters – in MORE states.
