re: #464 Hecuba’s daughter

Years ago during one of his fake campaigns for office, Stephen Colbert devoted a segment on his show to how meaningless these rules against coordination actually were. I doubt if anything will come of this.

A lot of our campaign finance law is incredibly stupid and easily manipulated. I’ve seen stories where candidate walks into room with donors, gives his/her speech/request for donations, then walks out and the person in charge of the PAC walks in, and asks everyone to open their checkbooks.

I’m not sure how we fix it, but right now it is just incredibly stupid.
