Even when this system thwarts the public will and paralyzes the processes of government, Americans have rallied to its defense."

National party leaders would funnel money through state and local parties to help elect candidates that the national party felt were appropriate representatives, or when the race was considered important on a national level. But with soft money bans altering fundraising rules, the national parties have less financial influence on local elections. In the past, the national parties could use funding to guide local parties toward backing the kind of candidates that the national party preferred. However, now that the national parties have less to give, there could be a loss of control."
