The thought that money from Corporate or other huge, organized groups like unions isnt already the primary source of influence over elections is laughable. Should we prevent George Soros from pouring hundreds of millions of his Wall Street dollars into Democratic campaigns via moveon.org and other shady groups he funds? That one single individual who happens to be a liberal billionaire has not only the funds but no fear of political retribution if his side loses. Should we rein him in as well because he certainly has more influence than a regular citizen?
The idea that this will suddenly make politics dirty and politicians whores seems to forget that we have already been there for quite sometime now.
