Not to mention heads of federal agencies (like the FEC). I think Mr. Bopp and others see that we have a very small window of time to reverse bad laws like BCRA and the McConnell decision. Now is the time to act before we lose even more freedoms.

We greatly appreciate your efforts in this matter. And the hard work you sustain. If only more people knew what freedom and the responsibilities to it is and allow and respect it without interference, this country would stand proud again. Thank you.

What really is to be gained if both parties are simply allowed to spend more money? Does the public learn new information? Are the candidates necessarily more free to express themselves? No. Candidates and now national parties will simply outspend themselves in attempt to reach an apathtic public. I truly believe in freedom of speech, I just do not feel that the right for national organizations to throw money into the wind is a worthy fight. The cost associated with elections, elections reform, elections oversight, etc... is far too large already.
