I was going to share the statistic Kristen shared — sorry I’m so late! I think this was an example of special interest groups and lobbying at it’s finest!

Thanks Kristen – I know the SC isn’t supposed to agree with public opinion all the time, but I really do feel like a line was crossed here. I am going to google that pole you mention. Have a great day – thanks for the visit!

I just read the results of a poll that stated that a staggeringly high percentage of Americans (over 80%, I think) opposed this SC decision – essentially the same breakdown across the parties. I know that the SC is not a barometer of public opinion, nor should it be, but rarely have I seen a decision that I am at a complete loss to understand. And, apparently, I am not alone!

You’ve really captured the essence of the problem in Washington. Until campaign finance is REALLY reformed, it’s always going to be about the money. c
