I do agree that we need some form of finance reform but that reform will not eliminate the person deals such as Reids, and will only move the flow of $$ from the lawmakers themselves to special interest groups.
Reid's offense is much less severe than Abramof or Delay. I do agree that corruption runs both ways, this in no way absolves the Republican party of it's own offenses.
