Supreme Court rejects corporate campaign spending limits

In a high profile race like a presidential election this , hopefully, wouldnt be an issue because it would be all over the news if Haliburton gave a candidate $100M. Its the lower profile, congressional elections where this is dangerous. It wouldnt be hard for a company or a few companies with a common interest to buy seats in congress to get their own way. Who needs lobbyists when corporate sponsorship is now legal.
