A snippet from Sunday night's Democratic debate:

This was the only mention of public financing of elections in Sunday night's debate. From the sound of the audience applause, it seems like a popular issue in New Hampshire.

Why don't candidates make more of an issue out of this? Would it be too hard to both advocate public financing while simultaneously seeking big contributions? If you ask me, Joe Biden is a great candidate to do it--but he shouldn't be the only one.

Update from Josh Zaharoff: Al Franken did just that on Huffington Post with a marvelous job of promoting public financing while campaigning.
