Well that's the thing. If George Soros or T. Boone Pickens want to spend $100,000,000 promoting their favorite candidate, or bashing their least favorite, that's going to continue to be fine and dandy. If 10,000,000 Americans want to band together and each contribute $10 to counter Soros or Pickens with ads of their own, do we really want them to be silenced?
Soros, after all, has given millions of bucks to groups promoting campaign finance reform like Democracy 21, because people like him are going to be the chief beneficiaries of tight restrictions on corporate or group spending.
