This picture is shown to be supported even at the level in which the vertices in the Dyson-Schwinger equations are taken to be bare. The running coupling is shown to be uniquely determined by the equations and to have a large finite infrared limit.Latex, 41 pages, 7 figures, submitted to Phys. Rev.
