Unfortunately, over an entire summer of debate, neither the campaign nor the advertising executives could agree on what the campaign should say.
The campaigns could not agree on either event.
But the campaigns all agreed that these past two weeks have been the most difficult of the long campaign season.
After the general election, his campaign agreed to pay the $350,000 in question to the Treasury, as well as to pay a $18,500 fine.
So, on that measure, the campaign agreed with the council.
The commission and the campaign agreed to send letters to about 1,000 contributors asking them to clarify the conditions under which they made their contributions.
But the two campaigns quickly fell into squabbling over the details, and could not even agree on the terms of a meeting.
Last weekend, both campaigns agreed to stop using unregulated money.
In a conference call on Wednesday with the bipartisan commission, all three campaigns agreed not to make the document public.
The campaign agreed to refund $104,000 in excessive or prohibited contributions, on top of $245,000 it had already returned.
