re: #44 Obdicut
That’s why Citizens’ United is so big. Until now, there’s been a back-and-forth, and a lot of vigorous debate, and steady progress (civil rights being the most obvious example). All of the gains have been hard fought, and of course sometimes there are setbacks.
The SC decision fundamentally changes the game. Now that Citizens’ United is in place, really, what’s the point of fighting any more?
Anyway, that’s how I feel on a bad day.
